Any of you running a business which deals with R&D and manufacturing? Is not that easy as you think

Even Apple, the biggest and richest company in the world fails on supply, launch date, has hardware problems etc

Paaaaaaatience

No, the right way to do this would have been to not give hard dates and take money that early in the process. It'll probably be a good part, but this is a major marketing fail. They said this was almost ready in January. Now they're sending out units before any test results have been released. You don't need to defend them. They're big boys. They've fumbled the ball every time they touched it.

It is extremely easy NOT to take money from customers without a developed product. The money for R&D should come from an investing partner or owner.

Terrible analogy. Apple doesn't foot their R&D costs with customer purchases of products that aren't yet on the market.

You're reading a different story, my friend. Try reading it again.

Any better this time? Don't rush!

My reading comprehension is just fine, thank you

I particularly enjoyed your irrelevant, hyperbolic comparison of AAM and Apple.
