> In an April 1985 InfoWorld editorial, James Fawcette wrote that Gates had said something like: “When we set the upper limit of PC-DOS at 640K, we thought nobody would ever need that much memory.”

So yes, Bill Gates denies that story. So it just depends on who you believe.

But to flat out say he never said it is too confident.
