Computer quotes

[Kacey]

Okay, I ran into these on an ezine I read, and I thought they were pretty good.

.. a computer is a stupid machine with the ability to do incredibly smart things, while computer programmers are smart people with the ability to do incredibly stupid things. They are, in short, a perfect match. ~Bill Bryson

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning. ~Rich Cook

And then, of course, there's the ever-true

To err is human... to really foul things up requires a computer. ~Anonymous

Does anyone else have any good computer quotes?

I thought it was 64k not 640k. This was in the days of 8 bit machines and 32k of RAM was huge.
