- Interesting thread.. A friend of mine signed on to RS as a part-timer
- just over a year ago, with virtually no knowledge whatsoever of Tandy
- computers. Ive seen him go from that to someone who can answer most
- PC-compatible (1000, etc) questions off the top of his head, and who
- is more than willing to track pretty much anything down.. His philosophy
- is something along the lines of 'know-your-product'/'you paid for the
- service/support. you WILL get it.'
-
- RS has implemented a 'FaxBack' service. Where, believe it or not, the
- sales guy has, within 5 mins reach, pretty much all pertinent tech
- specs on all CPUs other than I/II/III/IV/12/16/CoCo...
-
- Many RS'es in this area maintain archives of back catalogs..so if he's
- motivated, your sales guy CAN look it up..
-
- And there is no training on older products, computers included. The
- training is solely left up to the individual. training is based
- 99% on experience/personal research.
-
- Ohwell.. All I know is that a novice looking to buy a new machine
- and rcv quality support, or someone with an older machine and trying to
- expand, or just research just what that box in front of him will do
- would be quite happy to walk into his store..
