There's always more R&D. Google could always build a dozen more moonshots. Apple could spend more too. AI, batteries, chips, VR/AR, etc. The future is waiting for someone to invent it.


They are not constrained by money to do more R&D (or they would already be doing it).


No one said they were constrained by money for current products. You can always take on more projects and spend more money.

Apple, for example, is always extremely focused. Their products fit on one table.

Google's moonshots could get very expensive, especially if they venture farther into healthcare.

$20 billion R&D budgets can't be too hard to achieve. http://fortune.com/2014/11/17/top-10-research-development/
