For the bulk of the past decade, the computer manufacturer* has maintained the "party line" that their
successive models of high-end machines possessed all
the performance that would be required for the foreseeable future. (This "party line" alternated with
abortive attempts to, in fact, build high performance,
compatible extensions of the product line which
turned out to be neither high performance nor compatible.)

This is how the article begins. Keep in mind that the author is the guy who was in charge of building the ILLIAC IV project.
