IBM on Wednesday reported a 20% increase in net income for its third quarter and said its profit outlook for the full year remains on track.
The pre-announcement came a week before IBM is due to report its full financial results on Oct. 16 and may help calm technology investors, who have been pummelling stocks amid fears of a spending slowdown caused by the U.S. financial crisis.
On Monday, software vendor SAP said concern about the financial crisis among its customers led to a “very sudden and unexpected drop in business activity” at the end of its third quarter.
IBM suggested that the broad scope of its business will help it to better weather the crisis.

LONDON, UK: Apple has swept the board at Britain’s T3 technology magazine’s annual awards, winning four top prizes, including gadget of the year for its iPod Touch.
The touch-screen music and video player beat the Asus Eee Pc budget laptop, TomTom’s GO 920 car navigation system, Sony’s HDR-TG3 compact camcorder and six other devices.
T3 Editor Michael Brook said Apple had “nailed the mix of style and usability” with its latest crop of gadgets.
“The iPod wasn’t the first MP3 player, but it was, and is, by far the best,” he said. “The iPhone clearly wasn’t the first smartphone, but it was the first one that every man, his dog and his dog’s ticks would sell limbs to own.”
Apple won three other awards: best commuter gadget (iPhone); best music gadget (iPod Touch 32GB) and a prize given by the magazine’s blog, Gadget Candy (MacBook Air).
