Re: Kudos to IBM (Was: Assistance with missing OS/400 CD required)

I have often seen the people of the Rochester organization make
extraordinary effort to satisfy customers that goes above and beyond what
I've experienced with other vendors. If IBM could get the same kind of
attitude in its Accounts Receivable/Billing department when it comes to
resolving billing errors it would go a long way toward me saying I'm
extremely satisfied with IBM as an organization (other than with those in
the senior management ranks who make the bogus marketing decisions).
