>4. HP/UX verion 8 is out, but we received 7.08 on this "new" machine.

HP-UX 8.0 for the Series 800 hasn't quite gone in the mail yet; at the time
the machine you received left the factory, 7.08 *was* the latest release
available.

As for the rest of it, I'm pretty surprised at what happened. Contrary to
what you suggest, HP does not hold Telecom Autralia in contempt; I don't
think anyone in the company views TA as locked-in to HP, and many of us
continue to work hard to keep them happy.

Seems a call to the local sales office and one step up the ladder is in
order.
