Apple #2 on the BusinessWeek Infotech 100
BusinessWeek has ranked Apple #2 on its list of the Infotech 100. This list is designed to rank tech companies on their fundamental economic strength, taking into account "shareholder return, return on equity, total revenues, and revenue growth." Apple was up from 6th place last year and came in behind only Amazon.com. Microsoft is well back at #23; Google is #11, while HP is #30 and Dell did not even make the list. Apple's winning spell just keeps on going.

From a purely analytical standpoint, the fact that total revenue has such a significant weight in this tally skews the relevance of the list. Operational efficiency is far more important to sustainability of the business. Adding that metric would have made the list much more interesting.
