Extensions of a bad deal are a classic sign of a company in failure.
Randolph:
I strongly believe it is not a company in failure, but much more a bad
product in distress.
Apple did the same to the Power Mac G4 Cube. They tried to liven it up at
Tokyo 2001 - but it got on ice in July.
Apple had a lot of products that failed - Newton, eMate (I'm guessing),
Pippin (maybe), etc... But the company is still alive and kicking.
I'm thinking that .Mac will be as dramatic as - say - the floppy drive
omission - maybe a bit more costly - but .Mac will make it through
successfully, just like the switch to no-floppies, USB, and FireWire.
Best,
