I should have Larry sponsor mods on my BMW and plaster a huge Oracle sign across the car.

They have one of the older boats sitting in the lagoon at headquarters in Redwood Shores.

I remember there was a time, in the not so distant past, that this was front page news here in the States. I would not have even realized that there was a Deed of Gift 2 race match had I not caught a passing glimpse of it on ESPN yesterday.
