How about "Crap in a hurry really does win in the market not only 
because customers jump at features over quality but because crap in a 
hurry lets vendors hit the quarterly unit volume, revenue and earnings 
targets that they promised the analysts, who serve those who are going 
to bail out of the stock as soon as it hits those numbers."

I really think we're saying the same thing. You're looking at the market 
for the product, I'm looking at the market for the stock. The same crap 
drives both.
