Shakespeare on Semiconductors: Sail With the Tide

Your quote was misquoted by the old Intersil ("There are tides in the affairs of man...") as an advertisement for DRAMs, at a time when the company was offering an obsolete product line (32k instead of 64k, as I recall). I always thought that any engineer who knew their Shakespeare would find it as funny/sad/ironic as I did, since the company was clearly in the "omitted" group on that product line. Luckily I was working on Analog products, where we were taking the tide.
