Apple hasn’t been in the Fortune 100 since its revenue generating freefall in 1990’s. It has been gaining steadily in the 2000’s until the recession hit and knocked out a significant swath of competitiors. Today, it finds itself at #71, its second all time highest (it was #67 in 1994). Will we see Apple in the top 50 in 2010?
