too little too late...

[Tom Jennings <tomj@xxxxxxx>]

A bit sad that it's come to this...

Talking about Furd & Chebbie's ongoing problems of being in the
dreaded middle (unappealing products):


	"If I was in their styling studio I'd be working 24 hours a
	day on models that excited me when I walked through the
	door," said Gerald Meyers, a University of Michigan
	professor and the former chief executive of American
	Motors, which was taken over by Chrysler. "There has to be
	excitement in that instant when the customer walks through
	the door. That decision to look and buy happens very
	quickly."
