lisette..."beat dell"

yesterday received mailing..."compaq direct plus...award-winning solutions
from compaq...to help your business grow"..this is a twenty page catalogue
patterned after dell's typical mailings..pushing the "prosignia" lineup..from
desktops, to workstations, servers and even the aero 2100 hand held
pc.....they are not wasting anytime in "cranking up" their "new???" sales
channels...

cpq customer support much better..recently had a hard drive crash on an out
of warranty armada lap top...they fixed it free of charge, just had to pay ups to
the service center...got about four customer satisfaction follow up calls....they
stress "carepaq" service packages..which includes unpacking to testing at
your location of purchased equipment at $125 per desktop and $200 per
server.......they are not as dead in the water as most believe, the choice of
ceo can make the difference...get one like gerstner who is willing to slice and
dice and they go forward with great success...imho, ed a.
