Every good work of software starts by scratching a developers personal itch.
Eric S. Raymond
Image
We're responsible for the creation of the PC industry. The whole idea of compatible machines and lots of software - that's something we brought to computing. And so it's a responsibility for us to make sure that things like security don't get in the way of that dream.
Bill Gates
Image
To be able to choose between proprietary software packages is to be able to choose your master. Freedom means not having a master.
Richard Stallman
Image
As every new breed of virus is conceived, created and released into the wild, another small change is made to the anti-virus software to combat the new threat.
Glenn Turner

Imagine the disincentive to software development if after months of work another company could come along and copy your work and market it under its own name...without legal restraints to such copying, companies like Apple could not afford to advance the state of the art.
Bill Gates
Image
Because software is all about scale. The larger you are, the more profitable you are. If we sell twice as much as software, it doesn't cost us twice as much to build that software. So the more customers you have, the more scale you have. The larger you are, the more profitable you are.
Larry Ellison

Paying isn’t wrong, and being paid isn’t wrong. Trampling other people’s freedom and community is wrong, so the free software movement aims to put an end to it, at least in the area of software.
Richard Stallman
Image
What [software] must not do is not the inverse of what it must do. .
Nancy Leveson
Image
Software gets slower faster than hardware gets faster. (Or, sometimes known by] Grove [the head of Intel] giveth and Gates [the head of Microsoft] taketh away.)
Niklaus Wirth
Image
Software is a reflection of our own mind. And as our software improves it will not only take on the patterns of our minds more closely, but it will also pick up the energy of our minds in other words, I think that software is alive.
Frederick Lenz
Image
I took a job in the U.S. because I wanted to work on products that would get into end users' hands. In Norway, most of the jobs are in server software, niche stuff.
Jon Lech Johansen
Image
The most important thing was the creation of a... a standard, where hundreds of companies build hardware that can all run the same software.
Bill Gates

Here's the problem right now the person who is savvy enough to want to have a good PC to upgrade their video card, is a person who is savvy enough to know bit torrent to know all the elements so they can pirate software. Therefore, high-end videogames are suffering very much on the PC.
Cliff Bleszinski

The engineering is long gone in most PC companies. In the consumer electronics companies, they don't understand the software parts of it. And so you really can't make the products that you can make at Apple anywhere else right now. Apple's the only company that has everything under one roof.
Steve Jobs
Image
I'm still learning. I've never done a digital project before. And I'm pretty sure I did things to the software that weren't supposed to be done.
Don Hertzfeldt
Image
I think the most difficult thing had been scaling the infrastructure. Trying to support the response we had received from our users and the number of people that were interested in using the software.
Shawn Fanning
Image
We're entering a new world in which data may be more important than software.
Tim O'Reilly
Image
One: demonstrations always crash. And two: the probability of them crashing goes up exponentially with the number of people watching.
Steve Jobs
Image
Our mailing lists (and their repeater newsgroups) are only for the purpose of promoting proprietary software.
Richard Stallman

Android is a major step towards an ethical, user-controlled, free-software portable phone, but there is a long way to go.
Richard Stallman
Image
I think it's important to also realize that this isn't a case of Apple being asked to simply flip a switch or, you know, plug in a wire from one place to another. They're being asked to write new software that doesn't exist. They purposefully did not create this kind of backdoor.
Angus King
Image
You can go overboard in how quickly you might expect new technologies to transform people's lives. But I very much believe the way software is used, the way information gets distributed, will be dramatically different within 10 years. There is fire to go with all this smoke.
Bill Gates
Image
We're going from a world of customized software to standardized platforms.
Aaron Levie

Software is largely a service industry operating under the persistent but unfounded delusion that it is a manufacturing industry
