top 100Today PC World magazine released its ever-famous 100 Best Products of 2006. And what kind of company would Apple be if it didn’t have at least a few products in the top 100? Well, try five. That’s right, five of Apple’s products are in the top 100 (actually they are in the top 50). The iPod nano (#4), Boot Camp (#10), the Mac Mini (#35), the iPod (#36), and iTunes (#43) all managed to make the list.

Other significant winners are companies like Intel (whose Core Duo chip ranked in at #1), Google (whose Google Earth came in at #6), and Canon (whose 30D DSLR camera snuck in the top ten at #8). Also be sure to check out the top 25 Worst Tech Products of All Time (I’m so sorry AOL).

Lastly, what should a company who manages to put 5 products into the top 100 for the year win? Why Hardware Compnay of the Year, of course. Oh Apple, we’re so proud of you (even if a few of your old products did manage to make the 25 worst list).
