There are a lot of bad business decisions in tech history but I don't think you'll actually find that many examples where the technology itself was intrinsically bad. More often than not it's the management and handling of it that turned out to be poor, right?

It was bad desuuu.
It was designed for single core CPUs and stood no chance against android ecosystem. I know it's fine for typical linux users who knows how to use bash but it was unusable for typical users. Have you ever tried browsing the internet on maemo 5.0 (n900)? It was a pain in the ass. Now the funniest thing is that under shitty android port (nitdroid) it was completely fine, even without CPU OC and SWAP.
Maemo is a timesink hobby OS, nothing more.
Would DIVX discs count?

Xbox One

Actually Microsoft has been fucking up really hard lately. If it weren't for all those backroom deals, they might've been fucked like every other company who plays fair.
