They do this even when the lines ARE in service. "Hey, I know > it's late, but can you tell me why I'm only getting 1000cps on a > zmodem download?"

In the big world, there is such a thing as 24-hour service, professional customer service representation, systemized trouble resolution. In short, quality. Anything less than 100% commitment to customer satisfaction leads some customers in search of another answer. But, I don't charge for access to my little hobby Waffle system, so that's not a moral dilemma for me. Nothing's ever been promised, and most users damn well don't know my home phone number! However, that's not everyone's cup of tea. On the topic of "trouble resolution," I'm not really aware of any free/shareware software for "trouble-ticket management." Does anyone here know of such? Or is that strictly in the domain of Mega-$$$ companies? -- dawson@willard.atl.ga.us (Willard Dawson) gatech!vdbsan!willard!dawson emory!uumind!willard!dawson Willard's House BBS, Atlanta, GA -- +1 (404) 664 8814
