I followed Photocomm (PCOM - now GGGO) for years... They produce solar cells and turn-key installations for solar-powered well water pumping for third world countries and out-of-the-way locations. Stock went nowhere. GGGO has been reporting better earnings, but solar can't compete price-wise when they're practically giving away oil.

PS - I did buy some solar-powered path lighting for my back yard... They work pretty well. Cells charge two 1 1/2 v D batteries during the day... Enough to provide failry good light for 5-6 hours / night.
