I need to be able to get it up and running NOW, not when the three geeks who wrote the code are available.
    Doesnt the .gov have an app for that? Oh wait apparently they do.

    What in the chit is your LAN being down Microsoft's problem? So if you unplug a cable or mis configure a NIC on your LAN thats MS 24/7 supports problem?

    The amount of money wasn't the point for me, I passed the cost on to the end customer who was annoyed, but when it was explained he understood. He wasn't paying attention to the total costs when he chose his office system, and wound up paying more in the end.
    I may be new to this business but that is something I hate. Pass the cost to the customer for my ****UP. I didnt do that when I was an electrician, a warehouseman, and Im damn sure not going to do it now. If I do something that costs the end user more I will and have owned up to it.

    As to the spelling corrections, why would I give a damn?
    Some people get butthurt when their spelling is corrected. Dont get butthurt for not giving a damn.
