Stockholders can get results. Has anyone mentioned any of these concerns on any of the 3COM stock discussion forums, on RagingBull.com for example? Randy

Oh you got one of those calls too? ;-)
Well...this was after complaining to high heaven to our sales rep who forwarded our complaints on to this guy...then he didn't even call to try to address our complaints...just to tell us what was available in support contracts. We already bloody knew what was available as far as support contracts were concerned...that's why we were complaining! :)
I told him 3com was only trying to make a Profit on Support...
I was basically told, at one point, that 3Com didn't want to do anything that wasn't "revenue positive." You can imagine the response that brought.
I told him I always considered Support an Expense and then prodeceed to explain to him how much I cared for his call.
Heh...yeah...my co-admin took the call here...he let the guy know, in no uncertain terms, what we thought of the call and the support contract situation in general...like I said...he totally blew us off...we were never contacted again about that subject. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456
