'The obvious mathematical breakthrough would be development of an easy way to factor large prime numbers.' Bill Gates, The Road Ahead, Viking Penguin (1995),
I don't believe that that is an accurate quote.
If someone were to develop an easy way to factor ANY prime number yet alone large ones I would be call that a mathematical breakthrough indeed!
How sure are you of that quote?
