Survival of the Fittest

 PROFILE
Even with all his Vulcan logic, could Spock invest like "this?" Brainy billionaire Paul Allen organizes his business and charitable ventures under Vulcan Northwest. Allen, who co-founded Microsoft with Bill Gates, promotes a "wired world" vision, in which everyone is united through interconnecting communications, entertainment, and information systems. Vulcan Northwest includes Allen's stake in Microsoft (about 5%), as well as holdings in dozens of companies providing computer, multimedia, or communications products and services, and six charitable organizations supporting the arts, medical research, and conservation. Allen also owns the NBA's Portland Trail Blazers and the NFL's Seattle Seahawks.
