Stew and Merlin have dubbed it a Gorilla, and I think they got it right.

Is this true???? I think Stew has simply said it has a great future, with great management, but I don't know he has correlated it with GG principles.

As for Merlin, I thought he posted a week or so ago that he thought it had crossed the chasm, with widespread adoption or near-adoption. I don't believe Merlin has talked about the bowling alley, tornados or gorilla status of Gemstar yet. But I have been extra busy lately and could well have missed this; forgive me if I did.

Uncle Frank,

Stew and Merlin have dubbed [Gemstar] a Gorilla, and I think they got it right.

I don't remember that. I hope I dubbed it a potential gorilla and I don't remember Stew's exact thoughts.
