for the environment. They
kill the birds. They are very
expensive in terms of
energy. They're made in
China. Donald Trump

BILL GATES ON THE INTERNET – 1994
The Internet has enormous
potential, but it’s important that
expectations aren’t cranked too
high. The total number of users
is still a very small portion of
the population.
