A380: Repeating the 747's history?

I once had a sales person promise a client that they could have copies of
their 90-minute video in 60 minutes!!!

Who needs Eintstein's theories on bending time and space when you have sales
people who actually can do it!!??!!

Not a problem, given the proper tools. A high speed duplicator can copy a 90
minute video in far less than 60 minutes.

Yes, but the client wanted them done in our real-time room.

And actually, the Sony "Sprinter" system can duplicate a two-hour movie in
about 72 seconds.

What's wrong with that? Copies can often proceed much faster than
playback.

Kingfish,

a lot of problems allegedly seem to come through actions of the top
sales person, promising customers more "customizations" than can now be
handled in an effective production process.

Sounds familiar. I've read the wiring issues have to do with the
in-flight entertainment system. Another tidbit I've heard is that
different software versions were being used by the subcontractors that
were working on the program.
