• When I studied computer science at Duke University in the first half of the 1980s, I had professors who treated women differently than men. I kind of got used to it. At Microsoft, I had to use my elbows and make sure I spoke up at the table, but it was an incredibly meritocratic place. Outside, in the industry, I would feel the sexism. I'd walk into a room and until I proved my worth, everyone would assume that the guy presenting with me had credibility and I didn't.

The guys who did Ventura Publisher one day, and then United Airlines the next. You'd see the 12 guys in Texas doing Doom, and then you'd go see Aetna life insurance.

Give that to us, and we'll provide the information to you in accordance with Irish laws."

• I can't say that I like MicroSoft: I think they make rather bad operating systems - Windows NT is just more of the same - but while I dislike their operating systems and abhor their tactics in the marketplace I at the same time don't really care all that much about them.

• Una tecnología se convierte en verdaderamente disruptiva cuando hace que el coste marginal de algo que solía ser escaso y caro se acerque a cero. Así, antes, para desplegar software a gran escala, había que financiar un centro de datos, comprar un conjunto de servidores, almacenamiento y equipos de red, crear una capacidad de gestión de TI interna y comprar una costosa pila de software de apoyo antes de poder siquiera empezar. Ahora puede obtener todo eso de Amazon o Microsoft en un modelo de pago por crecimiento.
