Knopf editor Gary Fisketjon thinks it's a crock: "I don't see any revolution, and anyone who does is a fool. Why would anyone pay for software to display something that's readily available? Nowadays you don't have to go more than five steps before running into some sort of bookstore."

So, you think Gary F. just went to the top of the Knopf promotion list?

What was the quote attributed to the IBM CEO when computers first hit the scene? Something like "there will only be a handful of these made". If someone has the exact quote, I'd appreciate it.

And Gary's words of wisdom shall go along side it.

Regards,

Scott W.
