We are in what Valentine Lee calls an "online education rush." "We are trying to look at what the opportunities are and we've divided them up into software content, backend systems, and hardware. The educational world is not very dissimilar to what we are seeing on the Internet. What you are going to see initially is the revenue and profitability infrastructure companies much like the Cisco or Dell's of the world that are providing hardware because that's what you are talking about when you're building out online."
