OK, so let's call AFFX a chimp, but the recent dispute with Incyte has gone a long way to pointing us in that direction. How many points on the upside have already been lost by those who will await the appeal. The recent ruling in their favor makes this one a very big chimp indeed. Good luck to all and keep your eyes on the revenue growth. BTW there will always be competitors and wannabe competitors in such a promising field but it would seem that AFFX has the financial muscle and wherewithal to make a good fight of establishing its proprietary position. All that said, AFFX could be a gorilla in the making and I imagine that lawsuits are part of the move to Gorilladom.
