Technology and E-Commerce – Small Business Quote of the Day

by Stefan Töpfer on Aug 29, 2008


A small business quote a day keeps you thinking, inspired and entertained 

“If the automobile had followed the same development as the computer, a Rolls Royce would cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside.”

Robert X. Cringely, US journalist & author, Infoworld (6 March 1969)
