Marc Andreessen
An awful lot of successful technology companies ended up being in a slightly different market than they started out in.
Marc Andreessen
There is the opportunity to do more and better if you're smaller and more nimble.
Marc Andreessen
Nokia and Research in Motion needed a modern operating system. They could have bought Palm or Android before Google did, but they didn't. Today, it's probably too late, and at the time they would have been criticized for overpaying, but as they say - shift happens.
Marc Andreessen
Innovation accelerates and compounds.
