I'd prefer we not take Microsoft^WGoogle's money because I'm concerned 
about strings attached.  Are you aware of any strings (such as 
advertising or licensing) that might cause an issue?  If it's truly free 
money, then that's another story, but I'm afraid if it's another case of 
Google and Microsoft insidious subterfuge.

Has anybody done the necessary review of the conditions?
