- So what are you? Disgruntled ex-employee now working for "Mustang" ?

- Frankly, a customer should approch ALL vendors as if they were a
- miss-managed collection of sociopathic teenaged programmers without any
- business sense whatsoever, but should only poke so deep. The complex
- and often messy internal workings of a company should not be examined
- too closely without holding all competitors to the same light.
-
- For example, the number of people at cisco who "bailed out" of their
- cisco stock options due to perceived "managment awfullness" and "general
- going to hell" is pretty astounding (and included some of the founders.)
- That was a couple of stock splits and several billion dollars ago...
