<<But it is not possible to move from King to Gorilla in the same market if we adhere to the definitions. If we don't adhere to the definitions, what's the point of having them?>>
Mike, i agree with what you say, but is a companies fate cast in stone. once a king always a king???
cannot a company cultivate and evolve it's product to a point where it is a proprietary standard and thus garnish gorilla power for itself. case in point, if jdsu can by the virtue of the merger create a passiv/active module that is a proprietary product which their competitors could not match. does this not give jdsu gorilla status, given they meet all the other criteria.
