Answer 2

A list like this could be huge, of course - if one categorized breakdowns in varying types of software/hardware, it could go for pages (e.g. Autodesk is a major player for CAD, Broadcom for communications semiconductors, Electronic Arts for gaming, etc.). I've also assumed - pehaps wrongly - that you don't care about, say, United Technologies for helicopters, or many other tech areas. Anyway, here's a short overview version for ICT...

IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Apple, Adobe, Oracle, SAP, JDE, Sun, Dell, Cisco/Linksys, TI, Network Appliance, HP, Apple, EMC, Nortel, RedHat (other linux), Xerox, Bell South, AT&T, Motorola, NCR, Nokia, Samsung, MySQL, Siemens, (perhaps Google).
