Programmed Obsolescence at play... launch a system, then make it bigger, then bigger, then more powerfull... Have some fools buy all of them. While they could at least already launched it the bigger possible.


Agree with that but they are nothing compared to apple and minor upgrades they provide so frequently.  Sickens me how many people upgrade or buy a new one so soon!  It's a good business model to be fair. 

As they say, a new sucker is born everyday... I also can't understand why would anyone buy one iPhone every 6 months or any of the yearly iterations games (buy once or twice a gen ok, but all of them? Crazy thing)...

But as a company you sell what the customer wants to buy and if they don't want you convince them with marketing or launch a different product... so yes sometimes the fault is on the customer.
