>All seem to assume that Tek approved this Tek employee's threat.

As a matter of fact, my own posting specifically said "IF this
represents Tektronix policy..."  But the point is that if the story is
true as posted, someone CLAIMING to be speaking for Tektronix called.
It would be a good idea if Tektronix made sure its employees did not
engage in threats against its customers.  If I go into a store and get
mistreated by a retail clerk, you can darned well believe I'm going to
shop elsewhere.

The question of USENET postings is a completely unrelated matter (most
of the time, anyway).  If a retail clerk acts like a jerk when NOT
engaged in trying to sell me something, I'm not going to hold that
against the company.
