Group FaceTime is only the latest of many Apple technologies to be delayed
Though I see the above as valid points that must cause plenty of grief on both the software and hardware front... COME ON MAN!They had 3 times the SW and HW in the 90s. Macs, printers, monitors, a camera. It was a mess, but they did it and could barely afford to advertise.Managing the supply lines and hitting ship targets was the nightmare under Spindler and Amelio. THIS is not that Apple.This is a Trillion $$$ company.Apple's R&D budget is what??? $3 Billion.When I supported and repped for them on 1999, their Annual sales were only $12 billion and falling. Their R&D is now 1/4 of that.Just how many people work on these projects? Are they just to fat?Multitudes more than worked on original Mac, Newton, or OS7/8/9.The HomePod took HOW LONG? And they still can't get Siri/AirPlay2 to know enough to see that you have two homepods and want them to run in Stereo by default as a preference.Microsoft & Google have have been doing multi-face chat and conferencing for sometime now. This is not like inventing Quicktime.Just sayin... ~S
