That sounds like something an unscrupulous competing salesman would say, not like a feasible design criterion. You can design tires for a specific life, but not computers. I've dealt with CompuAdd, and had no problems. That doesn't mean much in itself, because most products shipped work anyway; you want to find out about the few that don't. But a handful of satisfied customers, and no complaints, is a fair indication. Marty marty@hoqax.att.com hoqax!marty Martin B. Brilliant (Winnertech Corporation)
