The curses library had a bug in the halfdelay() and they sent me a new library
after fixing it on my complaint.

I had problems with the tape drive driver and they sent me a new one.

The keyboard driver in Rel D has a problem under VP/ix.  The fixed it.  I'm
still waiting for this actually.  Thanks for the reminder to jog their elbow.

Also they helped me get ISC VP/ix running which I thought was nice since
it wasn't their product.  I didn't get much from the local dealer of the
VP/ix other than a double billing on my VISA.  In general I have found them
helpful and friendly whenever I have had to deal with them.

And most important of all the support guy I deal with (Jeff Ellis) is a
fellow DoDer.  :-)
