Well, I can't complain. I ordered an upgrade from MacZap in July, and
hadn't received anything by October, so decided to enquire. I got in
touch via Compuserve, found out that the order had been shipped in July.
I hadn't received it so it had been lost courtesy of UPS. Symantec
immediately shipped another copy which arrived within a fortnight.
I guess I had the advantage that I now have INITs that worked right the
first time, but I was also impressed with the alacrity with which Judi
Lowenstein took care of my problem. I guess it depends on who you talk
to at Symantec.
