I didn't say that I DISagree.  But the expectation is totally unrealistic in
any practical sense.  There is ALWAYS something new.  Just when is a vendor
supposed to tell you "don't buy THIS one, buy the NEXT one"?  This week?  A
quarter in advance?  A year in advance?

I'm a vendor.  I don't particularly care to have a quarter or two of zero
sales -- unless I'm getting ready to retire and don't care if my employer
rants and raves about quote.

I think anyone who is upset about the fact that T-T has upgraded the
product, or didn't expect it, just needs a new grip on reality.  Life is
hard, then your stock options end up worthless --- and then, of course, you
die :-)
