Cha2,

Geof Moore called Intel a gorilla, but what he never did was to make the case for why.

He devoted three pages to making that case, beginning on page 81 in TRFM. The section is titled, "Gorilla Power at Work: The Example of Intel."

Based on the standards which seem to be used on this, your thread, the proof of Intel's gorilla status is what?

The "proof" is so much better stated in pages 81-83 that I won't bore you with a paraphrase.

What is Intel's IPR or what is it that Intel has to make it more than a King?

Your premis is wrong. IPR per se isn't needed. Siebel, Oracle, and Microsoft don't have any IPR that prevent other companies from developing competing products. The key isn't that the IPR ties competitors' hands. Instead, the key is that a company's product is accepted as the de facto standard.

Read pages 81 - 83 and tell me where Moore and Gang are wrong.
