Can you offer an example?

No, but given the rarity of gorillas in the first place, that isn't necessarily surprising. I think I could offer PSFT, though, as an example of a company that created a tornado, became a gorilla in that market, and then failed to capitalize on that position effectively, thus becoming a much weaker company than one would expect of a gorilla

I think that PSFT is suffering from management mistakes but as a gorilla is still in play.Two years from now we might know the score but seems to me it's way early to call their game.
