I was originally thinking GE but GE is still entirely relevant and hasn't really lost anything as far as I know. They're an extremely progressive company that has suffered from the current crisis, but is very stable otherwise. GE is one of those mysterious companies that has their hand in everything (like Honeywell) and, while it rides market currents like everyone else, doesn't ever seem to diminish in the long run.

Yeah GE is a model of consistency aiming at being top 3 at anything it does and is a very efficient company.  Though its financing arm got caught in the undertow of the financial mess, it consistently beats earnings in its long history without much fanfare (though alot of analysts say it was planned this way)  Sony, however, IMO maybe still sees themselves as an aggressive growth company and doesn't perform as efficiently and strategicly as they should.  Maybe Sony needs a dose of Neutron Jack
