Litton Computer Services. Datacenter and network services, desktop and professional services. Their professional-services division seems to be dedicated to the process of downsizing and modernizing systems. There's big money in that if you're know of any obscure Federal agencies stuck with antiquated legacy systems that could all be replaced with one Linux Box.

Lockheed-Martin. The merged forces of Lockheed and Martin-Marietta have created one of the world's largest and most diversified corporations. If they ever try to tell you they're only doing what's best for America, rememmber that these guys have their fingers in so many pies that for the last twenty years, America has largely done what's best for Martin-Marietta. If you forward your mail, they know where you are. If some intelligence agency wants intel on you, Martin supplied it and maintains and operates the databases. If absolutely despicable things have to happen to you simply because someone in Martin thought they didn't like the way you dress in your off-work time, rest assured that there's nothing even the FBI can do to stop them. L-M runs their information systems and can feed them whatever they like.

GEC-Marconi Hazeltine "is a long time technical leader in the design, development, manufacture and support of defense electronics equipment and systems.

Our long history in military communications, avionics, navigation and missile systems is highlighted by the significant number of industry achievements that we continue to demonstrate in the avionics community. "

McDonnell-Douglas. I like these guys. No particular reason, except for all of those really neat fighter jets and avionics upon which American military might depends. Also, I think their Delta Clipper (X-33) re-usable VTOL Space Access system is the futre of space access. I would recommend that the forward-looking technical innovation and research investment communities invest heavily in this technology. Check out this innovative digital video page.
