Del, I too attended this presentation, and other than a Three Stooges
sampling, what you quoted was what I carried away from that presentation.
My recall is something like "the acoustic piano will be obsolete by 1991."
I was in a rather warm and very crowded booth at a NAMM show. Could you
have been there at the same time?

Regardless, I've used the reference several times when forced to make
analogies between "traditional" and, ah, "contemporary" instruments.
