We have had pretty good experiences with our DEC service.  Our regular
service man ("Dangerous Dan") is actually popular because (a) is he
not here all that often, and (b) he fixes things quickly or finds someone
who can or helps us develop a workaround even if it is not strictly by the 
book, and (c) he has a light-hearted approach to Unix, rather than thinking 
of it as the enemy.
