Postings under this heading relate to the incessant commercial contest between large IT vendors. Who are the lead vendors? Here’s a “premier” list. It’s the top 10 IT vendors, by value (based on market capitalization as of Nov 6th 2007). Click on the link for postings for each vendor :

  1. Microsoft
  2. Google
  3. Cisco Systems
  4. Apple
  5. IBM
  6. Hewlett-Packard
  7. Oracle
  8. SAP
  9. Dell
  10. EMC

Currently, I have excluded chips vendor, Intel and mobile phone giant, Nokia, from the list, because I rarely write about them. However, if that changes I’ll include them.

The following posting provides a graphic of this top table of IT vendors:
