From the Paper:
"What is so startling about Bill Gates 1970's prediction of, "A computer on every office desk and in every home," is that very few people owned a computer at that time(Gates). For the most part only colleges and business had them. In fact the idea of a personal computer was beyond the comprehension of most people even those in business. For many in 1975, the Altair was their first introduction to a personal computer and it did not have a display or keyboard and had to be programmed by its owner by flipping a switch back and forth (pop quiz). Certainly this was not a product that would cause anyone to expect a computer to be on every desk and in every home. However, today there is a computer in 60 percent of the homes in the United States and people have access to computers in their jobs and in public libraries (Jennings)."
