		Andreessen: A large amount of what the government is doing these days is new technology investment because, especially in military or intelligence organizations, odds are that more and better information is your primary need.

		More than just a little luck, brains and timing, it was Marc Andreessen's vision for a user-friendly browser that for a large part had fuelled the growth of the Internet.
		His high school principal states that Andreessen had "an intellectual capacity that could intimidate people." His teachers and classmates remember him having a rather fecund and offbeat imagination; a proclivity to come up with rather different ideas on a variety of subjects such as the nature of God and the future of science.
		Andreessen immediately saw the market potential for a user-friendly browser that could be easily set up and installed, that displayed graphics alongside with graphics.

	Marc L. Andreessen
		Andreessen returned the favor during the campaign, stumping for Gore and sending all but $1,000 of his $404,000 in donations to the Democrats.
		For Andreessen, donating to Democrats made sense: The Clinton administration had championed his agenda -- including increasing the number of visas for high-tech workers, placing a moratorium on Internet taxes, and easing restrictions on trading with China.
		But Andreessen, who reportedly netted $174 million by the age of 24, says political donations like the $250,000 he gave to the Democratic National Committee last spring are not as "serious" as the amounts involved in his business.

	PC World - Will Microsoft Make Its Browser Better? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		It may be causing Microsoft to be more aggressive in leveraging its dominance of Internet client software, says Marc Andreessen, one of the founders of the browser company that Microsoft beat out in the late 1990s, Netscape Communications.
		Recently, however, its dominance has begun to erode slightly, due in part to a number of well-publicized IE security vulnerabilities and a generally favorable reception to Firefox, a slimmed-down browser developed as part of the open-source Mozilla project.
		The two are at odds as to whether control over user data would become a major issue in the coming years, with Andreessen arguing that denying users control over their data ultimately would be a way of locking customers into "walled gardens" of Internet services.
