Fortune's 20 most profitable tech companies

A friend sent this to me...thought I'd share the list. Funny how vendors like Xerox, TI or even "MEMC Electronic Materials" (seriously, who are they??) get virtually no attention compared to the Yahoo's & EBay's of the world.

  1. Microsoft: $14.1B
  2. IBM: $10.4B
  3. Cisco: $7.3B
  4. HP: $7.3B
  5. Intel: $7B
  6. Oracle: $4.3B
  7. Google: $4.2B
  8. Apple: $3.5B
  9. Qualcomm: $3.3B
  10. Dell: $2.9B
  11. Texas Instruments: $2.7B
  12. Corning: $2.2B
  13. Applied Materials: $1.7B
  14. EMC: $1.7B
  15. Xerox: $1.1B
  16. MEMC Electronic Materials: $0.826B
  17. Nvidia: $0.798B
  18. Adobe: $0.724B
  19. EDS: $0.716B
  20. Lam Research: $0.686B
