Len, For many months I have had some concern that this thread was narrowing down gorilla definitions so that only monopolies would be considered. Perhaps Qualcomm spoiled everybody. I think that's also partly due to the possibility that people forget that the applications gorillas tend not to have a monopoly. That's the purpose of my self-funded Monopololy Game. At a rate of one dollar per word, I won't have any trouble showing people how few times the book uses the word, "monopoly." Think of the discussions we've had here in the folder about the front office biz, the supply-chain biz, the online procurement software biz, the document/knowledge management biz, the infrastructure management biz, and more. All of them are gorilla games and though I could be wrong, I don't think anyone of them have a company operating in them that owns a monopoly. So far, I'm at risk of losing one dollar. But please folks, help me out! The last guy I want to send it to is sand wedge, because I will never, ever hear the end of it from him. :) Someone PLEASE find the word somewhere else before he does!!!!!! :) --Mike Buckley
