Akamai has technology-development pacts with Cisco Systems Inc (Nasdaq:CSCO - news). and Microsoft Corp (Nasdaq:MSFT - news).

Who else is there!

This one looks BIG.

I wish you were right, but unfortunately it is your decimal point that is misplaced. Oh well...

David:

To calculate the mkt cap of a company, one uses the total
outstanding shares of a company, not the floating shares.

In AKAM's case, they have a total shares of 90M.
So, 90M x $145 = 13B.

Oh, well. I think this explains who were jumping in
AKAM today:)
