Osborne computer?

Either they were moving too slow or announced new product too early (killing demand for the model they were actually selling). They went bankrupt before new model came out...

Apparently not entirely true, but that was the takeaway. it got a name: the "Osborne Effect"

I'd argue that Osborne moved too quickly, he was announcing the future (and they didn't deliver it too slowly, they just announced it too quickly) and subsequently committed suicide (figuratively, of-course.)
