Apple's ambition may be starting to get ahead of the company's ability to achieve it.

Renowned in recent years for its operational excellence, Apple in the last two months has delayed two high-profile products, the Apple TV set-top box and now, it said Thursday, Leopard, the upcoming update to its OS X operating system. The company pushed back the release date of Leopard so it wouldn't have to delay an even more highly anticipated product, the iPhone.
