Hi Ben - Here is an interesting stock screen I did for SUNW.
Rank by Name | Market Capitalization Symbol Company Name ================================================================= DELL DELL COMPUTER CORP $54,458,250 CPQ COMPAQ COMPUTER CORP $43,109,500 SUNW SUN MICROSYSTEMS INC $17,093,846 GTW GATEWAY 2000 INC $7,643,948 AAPL APPLE COMPUTER INC $3,575,477 SGI SILICON GRAPHICS INC $2,218,271
These companies are classified (by the Washington Post) as SUNW's Competitors: with a Rank sort by Market Capitalization.
Interesting output but I do not see IBM, Microsoft or HWP. ====================================================================
Here's the link if you want to view for another company: financial.washingtonpost.com
I was surprised to see Gateway's rank so high at 41% of SUNW's Market CAP. Also note that if SUNW's price is 2.5x higher it would have the same market cap. as CPQ. That means at $45 SUNW needs to trade at $113.82 to equal the market cap. of CPQ/Dec.
More food for thought......
