Manuals that mean dick.  Hardware that comes with no instructions.  A fucking Tech-Support that has been TOTALLY outsourced to India.

Here's the deal :  I'm NOT Racist.  But when I phone a tech support line, I want someone who can speak English.  It's just a little thing, but I think it's kinda important.  When I want Support on running SMTP and VPN across an SDSL circuit, the last thing you need to bring that conversation to a screeching fucking halt is to find out that the muppet on the other end of the phone doesn't really get to grips with 'Good Morning, I'm phoning about one of your routers'.

Seriously.

I'm still seriously fucked off that I paid around £400 quid for these things and the chances of getting them to work are literally fuck all.

One thing I've already commented one about Dell, is that the transition from Irish Support to Indian support made no fucking difference to me.  However, it's entirely different when you need to talk techie.

I feel your pain, Ironwood, having to deal with VPN and Cisco routers. Funny thing is, however, that at least as of about 6 months ago, 3com was using american tech support for their gigabit switches. Maybe that changed? I got stellar service from this nice grandma in Wisconsin who knew her Vlan configs like it was old hat to her.

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

The most racist thing I've ever done was cursing out a tech working for Netgear.  That fucking piece of trash company.

The Apostrophe is your friend.  Give him another e and he's golden.  Normally, I wouldn't point this out, but the Irony was THICK.

I keep pointing out to people on Teamspeak who can't understand me that I've got an honours degree in English.

They don't get the irony there either.

Gordon's sister and her family are visiting this week.  I have Scottish people coming out of my ears.  I understand the accent completely.  However, if I were on TS with Ironwood, I would still say, "what?  what?  what?"  constantly.  Just for fun.

That's probably because you spelled "honors" with a "u".
