Heya Ron,

yeah, you're right. But we have to better specify "vendor". For one
there are the manufacturer of products. Then there are the resellers and
consultants that introduce products into organizations. It sounds like
you are referring to the later part.

I think operators/employees and reseller/consultants do feel heat when
products fails (employees being shafted/fired and resellers/consultants
being "not called back" and losing contracts). I think we need to put
more emphasis/heat/blame on the manufacturer.

Cheers,
Frank
