Well, from the few times I've tried to call to see what's up with my order,
they said their Oracle database was down so they'd have to call me back.

To their credit, they called back within an hour.

Shame they lost the order, though [the end result will be known when my CD
ROM drive appears; the other parts of the order arrived 4 days after the
order was straightened out].

How do I know they lost the order?  They tried to cash the check that I
cancelled because I thought it was lost in the mail after talking to the
Oracle database folk about two weeks after the order was re-sent.  Sigh. :-)
