His donation to Oxford funded some of my early postgraduate work back in 2009.
I actually had an opportunity to meet with him a couple of weeks after I began the work, but not knowing who he was (or being particularly computer-history savy at the time) I didn't push it. In hindsight (not just today, but generally) I've always regretted not realizing who he was at the time.
