Business Week's 1999 Info Tech 100 Ranks World's Best Performing Technology Companies AOL, Dell Computer, Solectron Top Magazine's Annual List NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 10, 1999--There's a dirty little secret in techdom. All the fuss may be over online shopping. And Wall Street may be E-lated about the E-Trades, eToys, and eBays of the cyberworld. But if you want to know who's really making a mint off the Web, look for the companies that are digging the trenches, laying the pipe, and getting their hands dirty building the new Internet economy. They're the standouts in Business Week's second annual Info Tech 100 ranking of the best performing information technology companies. The leaders: America Online, Dell Computer, Solectron, Vodafone Group, Cisco Systems, EMC, MCI WorldCom, Inktomi, Sun Microsystems, and Microsoft. The Info Tech 100 is part of Business Week's Information Technology Annual Report (June 21 issue date), published tomorrow. In Business Week's Top 20, it was practically a clean sweep for the industry's virtual carpenters, electricians, and plumbers. Among them are six companies that provide the networking and telecommunications gear that links companies and consumers across the far-flung Internet, including No. 5 Cicso. There are three telecom carriers that zip E-mail, data, and voice calls around the globe, led by Britain's Vodafone. A trio that sells the high-powered servers that keep Web sites running--Dell, Sun, and IBM--has cashed in. And contract manufacturers hired by the brand names to keep the Net humming catapulted into the top. The real mind-bender, Business Week says, is that not a single consumer Web-site Company is in the upper tier. The top finisher among them, eBay, may be the toast of Wall Street, but finished No. 23 on Business Week's list. NOVL #82 biz.yahoo.com
