Larry Ellison of Oracle was interviewed the  day that Gates made his
announcement and said he also has plans to make donations to institutions.
The good news is that this could start a competition for giving, the bad
news is that Microsoft and Oracle are working against each other and
libraries, museums and schools could end up the battleground. Whatever
happened to the National Information Infrastructure plans to aid
institutional accessibility and networking?
