To Spellbound: They both have repeatedly delayed the launch of their new flagship product. Airbus has delayed delivery of their new A380 plane to SIA from December 2006 to October 2007. Microsoft has also delayed launching of their new Windows Vista operating system from 2006 to 2007 :)

To Fantasy Flier: They have both delayed the launch of their new flagship products.

Good thing is that at least, A380 don't come with so many 'patch files' after delivery! Haha!!

To Bored Dad: The A380 comes with over 300km of cables that run throughout the plane. Mind-boggling figure, don't you think? :p

To Dukester: Nevermind if the plane just hangs in mid-air and stays there. Only need to give everyone on board a parachute to jump out.
