>>No, I am not interested in litigation. I am interested in chivvying them (E*TRADE) to the point where they fire their systems people, hire some of the many bright networking kids now available, and get some real hardware.<<

Francis -

I know you're mad at E*Trade, and you certainly have a right to be.

But as a network systems professional, I must say that your proposed solution to the problems is asinine and ridiculous. Why do you assume that the network systems people are to blame? Maybe they're perfectly intelligent people who haven't been given the budget to put together adequate systems. Maybe their ISP was the cause of the problem.

And you think that there are "many bright networking kids now available" who can build systems which never have any problems? I guess you haven't tried to do any hiring in this field lately.

Again, you have a right to complain, but since you don't know the first thing about networking, perhaps you should just refrain from making suggestions.

Sorry, but you hit one of my buttons.
