I'd like to report a most refreshing experience I recently had with
SuperMac Technology.  It started out rather ominously, when I tried to
restore the contents of my DataFrame hard disk from its microfloppy backup
using DiskFit, a backup/restore utility distributed by SuperMac, and Diskfit
flatly refused.  Having just initialized the DataFrame, I was not especially
amused, as may have been evident when I called SuperMac.  Nevertheless, they
(in the person of Ms. Kathy Williams) apologized cheerfully, admitted that
they'd been having some trouble with the early releases of DiskFit, and
volunteered to send me the latest version free of charge.  The next morning
a new DiskFit disk arrived by Federal Express, and as soon as I fired it up
the problem disappeared.
   In a perfect world, of course, software would never fail, but the minor
inconvenience caused by the delay in restoring my DataFrame is far
outweighed by SuperMac's willingness to take responsibility and make amends.
No doubt this policy is expensive in the short term, but I hope it brings
SuperMac enough additional business to make it up in the long term.  They'll
certainly have all the business I can give them.
