In 1876, William Orton (president of Western Union) said, “This ‘telephone’ has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication.”

In 1903, Henry Ford’s lawyer was advised not to invest in Ford Motor Company: “The horse is here to stay but the automobile is only a novelty – a fad.”

In 1977, Digital Equipment Corp. president Ken Olson said, “There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home.”
