While most of the stocks in the once glorious Internet sector are struggling to stay afloat, the 70 listed below trade at less than the value of the cash on their balance sheets. And none, it's worth noting, carry any long-term debt.

Maybe GM wants a Hybrid Electric car?

Capstone-Energized Hybrid Electric Bus Debuts in China

Business Editors & Automotive Writers

CHATSWORTH, Calif.--(AutomotiveWire)--June 4, 2001--The first
hybrid electric bus in China was recently unveiled by Beijing
Chargeking Energy Technology Company Ltd. (www.chargeking.com), a
leading manufacturer of electric vehicle charging equipment, at the
Beijing International Scientific and Technological Exposition.
Attendance at the wide-ranging exhibition reportedly exceeded
800,000.
The high-tech bus, which is energized by two compact 30-kilowatt
microturbine power generators made by Capstone Turbine Corporation
(www.microturbine.com) (Nasdaq:CPST), was researched, developed and
manufactured by Beijing Chargeking with consultation from Beijing
Tsinghua University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Specifications of the bus are on Chargeking's Web site at
www.chargeking.com/english/product/ProductDetail.asp?ID=13.
The onboard microturbine generators recharge the battery packs of
the vehicle while it is in operation. In addition to being far cleaner
than traditional bus engines, the Capstone MicroTurbine is also
smaller, lighter and quieter. With a single moving assembly; no
gearbox; no pumps; no mechanical subsystems; and no need for oil,
lubricants or coolants, better reliability and greatly reduced
maintenance have been demonstrated on Capstone-energized buses
operating in the United States and New Zealand. Fuel mileage has been
shown to be more than double that of traditional engine buses.
While the hybrid-electric bus is currently shuttling Chinese
officials and foreign delegates on demonstration tours to and from
Chargeking's Beijing production facilities, it will soon enter public
transit service.
"The Capstones have worked perfectly in our bus. We have less than
1,000 miles on this new first bus. But we also hope to go over 30,000
miles with no microturbine engine problems," said Chargeking President
Kong Da Hang, referring to several Capstone-energized buses in New
Zealand and the United States that have each accumulated more than
30,000 miles of revenue service without any microturbine engine
maintenance other than air filter changes.
Non-hybrid, electric-only buses are much smaller than most buses,
accelerate slowly, cannot run on routes with uphill terrain and have
very limited range, especially in warm and cold weather. They must go
out of service once or more daily either for recharging or to have
their massive battery arrays swapped out. Hybrid-electric vehicles,
with an onboard source of recharging power, can eliminate these
issues.
"Capstone-energized hybrid electric vehicles maximize the benefits
of both electric-only and traditional engine vehicles," said Dr. Ake
Almgren, president and CEO of Capstone Turbine. "They remove the size,
range and terrain issues, accelerate more briskly, permit
uninterrupted 19-hour-per-day service, enable climate control in warm
and cold weather, and are just as quiet as an electric-only vehicle in
transit.
"Non-hybrid electric vehicles are recharged with power generated
at large centralized plants. The Capstone MicroTurbine generates
recharging power with fewer emissions than most large centralized
power plants," Almgren said. "As such, Capstone-energized hybrids,
from well to wheels, may actually have less environmental impact than
even so-called `zero-emission' electric vehicles.
"This attractive (photo at
www.microturbine.com/whatsnew/morePhotos.asp?newsid=115) 38-foot bus
is the largest Capstone-energized vehicle to date," Almgren added.
Other Capstone hybrid buses in service today range from 22-foot
buses running in Arizona, Florida, New Zealand and elsewhere to
several 32-foot buses operated by the Los Angeles Department of
Transportation.
< Both Capstone's liquid fueled and gaseous fueled microturbines
have been certified by the California Air Resources Board (CARB),
which has the world's most stringent emissions standards (see
www.microturbine.com/whatsNew/pressrelease.asp?article=66). Operating
on compressed natural gas (CNG), nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions per
brake horsepower hour of the Capstone MicroTurbine were certified by
CARB at a level 80 percent lower than the cleanest CARB-certified
heavy-duty truck and bus CNG engine. Even using diesel fuel, the
Capstone was found to have close to half the emissions of the cleanest
CARB-certified CNG engine.
