You've misquoted him

The original quote said "640KB ought to be enough for anybody". However in the following article Bill Gates denies every saying that. READ ME

I'm currently reading Carl Honore's "In praise of slow" which outlines the new "slow movement" that originated in Europe and is now making its way around the world. The slow movement encourages people to take their time and do everything a bit slower so as to avoid the perpetual feeling of being RUSHED and STRESSED that we all identify with. This extends to cooking, eating, working, exercising, even sex.

The irony is that I've just plowed through the book in only a few days. Really interesting stuff.

The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson.

In Chicago circa 1893, the author goes over the lives of two men - the main architect from the Chicago World Fair, and a serial murderer who used the fair to lure his victims to their death.

It's a really good book, all of it is real, and best of all, he includes all of his sources at the back along with a nice detailed explanation about how he did his research.

I highly recommend it!

The author of that book should print 12 million copies for the people of New York City because we live our lives in one big damn RUSH

heh...there are actually quite a few references to NYC'ers in the book. It's the anti-slow capital of the world - well, up there with Tokyo anyways.

I like city life but that would be too much for me, I think!
