Anyone who has been around the web development block is going to tell you that they select technologies with some balance between coolness and pragmatism.

MARCH 20, 2007

I would agree that Apples product design would suggest that it aims at Time Poor buyers. However, the ubiquity of the iPod including use by many folks who certainly would fall in the Time Rich category (lots of time to play with music) suggests that their product and marketing appeals to both segments.

Frequently missed deadlines.
