The road is long and hot, shimmering in the haze of heat coming off the tarmac, in the distance something dark flickers and wavers like a black flame, soundless. It gets larger, closer, takes shape as a faint thunder startles the jackrabbits. Soon it is a bike, with rider and passenger watching the road, the sky and the scenery, the thunder becomes a louder rumble and is upon you - and then gone, the sound fading as silence returns. A Harley-Davidson in its element: Ride and See.

A F T E R H O U R S .. Q U O T E S & EARNINGS REPORT DATES Voltaire's Porch Basket of Stocks These Stock Have Not Been Picked By Any One Individual GORILLA--A company that controls it market because it has a discontinuous innovation ,one that is not compatible with existing systems. The market is in a hyper growth stage, and they control the architecture. There is a high switching cost to using some other company's product, KING--The Market leader, properly with a two-times lead or better over its closest competitor. If the lead shrinks too far, the king becomes a prince, and we have a kingless market. Because they lack architectural control, and because switching costs are low, they cannot force competitors onto the defensive the way Microsoft, Intel, or Cisco can. Compaq is a king. Seagate is a king of hard drives. A lot of study has been done on these stocks by the Gorilla and Kings thread.
