Bill gates did not misspeak. Because he has never said it in the first place. Not to rain on your parade, people make mistakes all the time and everyone has a duty to not escalate mistakes.

" Gates himself has strenuously denied making the comment. In a newspaper column that he wrote in the mid-1990s, Gates responded to a student's question about the quote: "I've said some stupid things and some wrong things, but not that. No one involved in computers would ever say that a certain amount of memory is enough for all time." Later in the column, he added, "I keep bumping into that silly quotation attributed to me that says 640K of memory is enough. There's never a citation; the quotation just floats like a rumor, repeated again and again." "

I specifically left the 340k quote unattributed for this reason. However, it is an (in)famous quote on the internet. That's all I was referencing. So, it's not my parade you're raining on, so hope you don't have a big jump from your soap box. You kind of proved my point of the internet if full of "people smarter than everyone else"
