They are lower growth companies (lower than Apple) from a variety of sectors. With the very few exceptions, tech companies are much harder to project beyond a couple of years. Softie could screw up every major decision they made for a decade and they are still throwing off huge amounts of cash. Qualcomm similarly has a sustainable cash flow that would survive some bad decisions. Apple is nothing like those companies. The majority of their cash flow is from the iPhone and while there is some stickiness there, it is nothing like Windows. Slacker
