I ordered a prometheus modem from them. They lost my order. Finally, I called to find out what was happening, and learned the order was lost. So I restated my order. The next day, they called, saying my credit card was no good, sorry fella, *click*. I called VISA, they said the card was fine, I called PP practically screaming, and they said it still didn't work. I gave them my mom's card, and later that day they got MY CARD to work and used it instead. FINALLY, they sent the modem and cable via fed-x. But THEY SENT ME A MAC512 CABLE!!!! I CLEARLY TOLD THEM I HAD A MAC II!!! WHAT IDIOTS!!!!!! I said, "forget these morons", returned the cable, and bought the correct cable locally. Programs Plus == Sure Death.
