I have added a couple of stocks to my technology investment page, which
gives you a table of links to selected high growth technology companies'
home web pages.

Non Invasive Monitoring Systems NIMS

They make the  "Lifeshirt" medical monitoring garment that will go on sale
next year. People pay $30 a day to have their health monitored on
http://www.lifeshirt.com and although this is a lot of money over time I am
sure that there will be plenty of takers. I see a parallel between life
monitoring systems and vehicle and traffic monitoring systems. The latter
sector has seen stocks rise by tenfold over the past five years. If clients
of lifeshirt/NIMS  are willing to accept total computer monitoring of their
condition (rather than the present system using human operators), costs
should fall substantially over the years widening the market and hence
leading to exponential increase of profits.

There is an "accounts qualification", so do not invest any money you cannot
afford to lose in your attempt to see it rise by a factor of ten or more
over the coming years.

Genome Therapeutics Corporation GENE

This company is involved with genomics - the use of genetic information to
assign medication to symptoms with substantial reduction in risk and side
effects. I am convinced that genomics will be a growth area in the next
decade as big as PCs have been in the last two.

Don't buy the stock at the moment - there has been a sharp increase due to
an alignment with Schering Plough (also featured on my list). As with all
bio stocks, sharp increases are followed by sharp falls. Once the quotation
is back nearer the base line, buy a few though if you are looking for the
Intel of the 00s. A company like this could be it.
