Eric,
I join with you in emptying the contents of my venom sac deep
into the putrid flesh of shitty vendors like Oracle, Microsoft, and
yes..COMCRAP.
Getting tired of reading "Service is Our Number One Priority" when it
is clearly fifth or sixth, directly under. "F*cking You Hard When We Can"
or "Doing Kind of The Best We Feel Like, Depending on the Weather" or
"You'll Get NOTHING, and LIKE IT", or "You're Our Plaything Now That You've
Drunk from the Proprietary Kool-Aid"
Good Customer Service is really really really rare, especially when you
factor in consistent delivery of same.
Multibillion dollar corporations that get away with murder on a
daily basis are...well...a dime a dozen.
Now I must rest...as my venom sacs once again fill with their sweet liquid
of death....

K-
I apparently made the mistake of thinking that the US constitution
says that there is a right to FREE SPEECH in this friggin country.
I'm reporting what a reseller is saying about his several years of
experience, and what bugs the daylights out of the people that
ACTUALLY PAY MONEY FOR A PRODUCT (known as "customers" for those that
have never heard the word before).
Note that the resalescritter was specifically addressing the
headaches reported by CUSTOMERS at sites using service offerings in
the "SUB-enterprise" category.
Anyone feel free to call me an idiot (HELP), that I'm wrong, or
whatever, but absent the technical merits of a "pro-Compaq" position
having been presented in detail, all I hear is someone acting like a
pissy little fascist.
My writing wasn't exacty at the level of the Great Bard, but it would
help if people would read a bit more carefully before they barf.
Speaking of which, I'm sick of all the crap (lying/etc.) from vendors
and their employees and the friends of their employees, and having
them expecting the customers to kiss their a$$es all the time because
they are some big megacorp.
Of course the good news is that I can now go around telling people
that if they want good services, they should buy IBM since there are
so many a$$holes in the Compaq world.
brgrds,
ep
