That's Scott's line, not Larry's, unless of course your saying Larry copied it and now its his. :) It's the battle cry of the anti-MSFT camp, now and forevermore. I don't understand what you are saying here, could you explain? You said, in a previous post: The reason he has the money is the way our economy works is that we give Money to people who answer society's economic needs. Perhaps you were being facetious? That's all I can figure. In any case, my only real point of contention is that Bill Gates is any form of visionary, or innovator. Company after company has come along, including Oracle, that has been stifled by Bill and his billfold. The guy's propped up on a foundation of really talented programmers and ad people. Can you ever see him bringing the software equivalent of iMac to market? Don't think so. Anyway, back to Oracle. Microsoft is increasingly yesterday's news.
