There's a very good article on Larry Ellison and Oracle in the current issue of Fortune. URL below cgi.pathfinder.com Excerpt below "Larry Ellison, the swashbuckling founder and CEO of Oracle Corp., is much better known for his extravagant avocations than for his executive skills. After all, he's the guy who, besides running the world's second-largest software company, owns and pilots his own fighter jet. (It's a defanged Italian Marchetti. The Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms foiled his attempt to import a Russian MiG.) He's also a world-class competitive yachtsman whose Sayonara was first in its class to cross the finish line in the deadly Sydney-Hobart race last February. "
