 PROFILE
Whether due to nature or nurture, Phoenix Technologies is one bird with a definite bias for BIOS. The company's basic input/output systems (BIOS) system-level software, which controls the communication between computer hardware and operating systems, helps run more than 70 million new PCs annually. Phoenix Technologies' software can be found in terminals, phones, personal digital assistants, and semiconductor components. Almost two-thirds of the company's sales are in Asia. Chip giant Intel owns 8% of Phoenix Technologies, and the two have a multiyear technology licensing deal to develop System BIOS -- one of the few permanent software components Intel doesn't already make.
