As we already reported it couple of months ago, Apple is clearly suffering from a lack of internal engineers and developers who after being dedicated to the iPhone, are now fully concentrating on Leopard, while they have to fix some bugs in the current OS X 10.4.10. Apple needs to strengthen its resources in this area, but it will take some times till Mac users can benefit of new recruited coders in Cupertino (training, gaining experience, etc.).
