- Give us a frigging BREAK! Dell Computer Corporation sells Dell Unix SVR4
- as well as SCO Unix, DOS, Windows, OS2, etc. Just because you ask some
- (probably new & busy) sales person for a data sheet on unix and got something
- on sco unix doesn't mean Dell doesn't have better unix products available...
- just that Dell is hard pressed right now to properly train all the new sales
- and tech support people it's hiring (by the droves). Besides, sales people
- are notorious for knowing little about software and quick to dispose of callers
- who waste their time asking about it. Reality is not always pretty. :-)
