They used to go public but now they mostly get snapped up by bigger companies that are higher up the food chain.
Large companies spend a lot less on research than they did in years past. What little they do invest, they spend on making incremental improvements to existing products. They spend very little on research that is capable of producing major breakthrough results.
I almost forgot that big companies can still put together smart deals that can rock our world. I think that Apple and Intel did just that two years ago.
The breakthrough is not the recently released Mac that now has ?Intel inside?, it is the next generation iPod.
The devices that are going to rock your world are the ?Mobile Me? devices from Apple. ?Mobile Me? is a new trademark that I think, Apple will use to describe new handheld devices that give you almost everything you want, all the time, wherever you want it.
I know what you want is a lot! And Apple is going to give it to you. When they do, I think you will reward Apple with even bigger buckets of your dollars.
