So I wonder who dropped the ball, Marketing or Engineering?
Was Marketing so chomping at the bit that they had "faith" Engineering could pull it off in a few months? Or perhaps Engineering felt their annual bonus was tied to the release of this product, so they took a gamble to (tell marketing) that they'd have a working product soon.
Whatever the reason for this boondoggle, it likely reflects constipated communication between the groups.
