OK, dream a little. What would the ideal support center for Ultrix (as an
example)? Remember that somebody has to pay for this center (mainly you,
the customer). Criticize, fantasize, but be realistic (kinda contradicts the
notion of 'ideal', don't it?). Let your imagination run wild.

But don't just do it here. Send mail to me. I might be able to do something
about it. No promises, no commitments, just someone near the problem who could
make a difference. I saw parts of the discussion from last April. Also, be
sure to note whether or not you current have a software support contract
(and who it is with...).

I hope to hear from you (I've cleared out some disk space and fire-proofed
my workstation...).
