All I know are the facts that were posted. And I can say right now
that I PERSONALLY (that's personally folks) think that a system that
can't accommodate a simple vt or tvi terminal is going to be a dud.
As far as the consultant thing, I apologize to the net for my
uniformed comments, but it sounds all too typical of the computer
"expert" consultant coming in and telling the executives about all
this special equipment they need and a special program they will write
to make it easy to use. I could be wrong, but couldn't practically any
minicomputer with a decent CPU run a phone number database...and one
that could be set up in a couple of days??
And Jan...yes, I would use your system for $.15 a minute...assuming
that I don't have to wade through 5 menus (or be forced to read 10
pages of directions) to type in the search key.
Eric
