Biggest product killer for these is the need for IT management.

Prove to retailers that your product is install-and-forget or they'll shy away from the unpredictable maintenance costs.

Terrible design.

The high-end customers you desire will never abandon their shiny Swiss watches for this.

The low-end customers will (once again) be claimed by Samsung.

I didn't really like him, but Jobs was indeed a visionary. Apple is losing ground (alarmingly rapidly, I might add) after him. May he rest in peace.

Make your FU money and bail. Nietzsche explained why;

He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you.

p.s. a white collar mcjob makes more than an adjunct "professor".

When you try to get it accredited, you'll have a better understanding of the problem.

Only when you threaten to rock the boat do the esteemed gentlemen show their mafia qualities.
