"640kB should be enough for everybody" (Bill Gates)

lol what year was that quote? Late 80s or early 1990s?

Late '80s, I guess, and his die hard fans (and even he himself) have been trying for some time to pretend he never said it because the original source isn't on the net: but it can't be there, the Web didn't exist yet! He said it in an interview or a conference.

A 1987 Macintosh had a maximum memory capacity of 20MB, so it is unlikely anyone would be saying this in the late '80s. This sounds more like early '80s when the first MS-DOS machines were coming out.

640kB was for RAM, notHDD, but you're right anyway, it must have been early '80s, as in 1985 intel launched the 386 (although MS started using its 32bit quite later).
