Eric W. started with Flex-Radio 4 years ago this month, I think...Just as Flex was starting to transform into a "real" company with real fulltime staff and so forth. If he's like most of us, I suspect that back in 2004, he never thought we would be where we are today. Heck, he may not have even thought that he would still be working at Flex (or that it would be in business?).. Certainly, that's true for lots of folks in their first job out of college. Sure, nothing works like planned, but that doesn't mean that it's not a fun and interesting ride on the way. I think that Flex (and you) have done a great job overall. Certainly, the Flex product line is an industry leader, now, in a relatively short time.. Probably not what most thought would happen when Gerald's first articles came out in QEX, what? 5-6 years ago? Yep, things might not go like the public statements and wishes say they will, but, OTOH, I think that folks are more than willing to cut Flex a huge amount of slack on missing their predictions, given the outstanding results that have been produced. Sure, we'd love to have seen the new architecture implemented sooner rather than later, but, I'm sure that you'll be in agreement that when you're supporting hundreds of customers, fighting the fire in the wood building today sometimes takes precedence over building the fireproof concrete building of tomorrow. (Or some such metaphor. it's late..) Jim, W6RMK As far as bitching and sniping.. ad hominem is never pretty, so we'll leave it there. _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
