Well, that was well more than a decade back, so I suppose we can 
forgive him for neglecting to predict that the 286 may be invented...

And that was nearly three years back now, so I guess he has no legs to 
stand on there -- he simply had no grip on why we have spam or why spam 
works, and certainly had _NO_ idea at all about how to successfully 
address "the spam problem" (despite hiring what _he_ thought were the 
brightest minds in the anti-spam camp to advise him -- yet more 
evidence of his grievous lack of grip on anything worth understanding).

You're optimistic we'll see it that soon?

Mind you, by then he'll be working on HTF to feed all the third-world 
poor and diseased who would otherwise have died and not bred and needed 
feeding, nor their offspring feeding, ad nauseum, without his 
intervention in "improving" their health care.

I guess his billions will deal with that for a few more years until he 
goes broke and the world's media stops lining up to suck his appendage 
or lick his nether regions (or both).
