Re: All that you would ever need...

There's evidence that he did say something like that, although probably not paraphrased. For sure he said in 1989:

"I have to say that in 1981, making those decisions, I felt like I was providing enough freedom for 10 years. That is, a move from 64k to 640k felt like something that would last a great deal of time."

It's not unbelievable to think that in the early 80's a remark about 640k being all people should need is reasonable.

I think there was some sort of reference being made in that design of IBM machines in that time period could not get past 640k.
