Add to that "ineptitude or failure to appreciate the market potential on the part of management" (eg: Softech Microsystems decision to charge $400 for the UCSD-p System for the original IBM PC when Microsoft was selling PC-DOS for $40), and I couldn't agree more.
Which is why I feel Apple will continue to loose market share if it cannot bring touch screen, handwriting recognition, pen input, voice recognition, and WiFi technology to market bundled a la the various Windows Tablet PCs. Having used a TPC for about six months now, nothing would entice me to put down my pen and reach for a mouse, keyboard, track pad, or track ball.
