After watching Ford talking about how great they are on the Today show this morning (http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/38404690/ns/business-autos/), I couldn't stop thinking about how the consumers do/don't benefit from new versions of cars coming out each year, just because it is a new year.<p>Applying the kool-aid we're drinking in software development to the car manufacturers, I keep wondering if yearly releases only stand to benefit the car-sellers and if we'd be better off with incremental releases.
