As a recent re-entrant to the list, I am struck by the vitriolic
comments of some who have contributed.
I own TS 4.0 and shortly before I joined the list I ordered TS 2000 --
but after reading all of the comments and complaints re this product,
decided against utilizing it at this time.
I am not sure why there are these attacks on Mark who as far as I can
see merely tries to hold Omega responsible for meeting their
obligations to their customers -- hardly the most outrageous thing to
expect. Admittedly, Mark tends to call a spade a spade and does it in a
way that is less than diplomatic at times -- but the essence of what he
says seems valid.
What I find to be almost offensive about the reaction to the recent
divulging, by Mark, of a confidential communication that he came upon,
is not his willingness to share it with the list -- after all, it
appears that it was not provided to him by Omega -- but the attacks on
him by the likes of Sam who have the audacity to challenge Mark's
ethics and at the same time maintain a deathly silence about the
questionable ethics of any vendor releasing a piece of software that is
full of bugs.
FWIW, I don't know Mark from Adam; I have talked to Sam a couple of
times when he was with Omega in the early days of the release of
System-Writer when it first came out - and he was helpful. I suspect
that I was one of the very early purchasers of that system and Omega,
with my consent, used some of my comments in advertising pamphlets that
they sent out. Bill Cruz, who was then just finding his feet, was then
and has always been very attentive to my needs when I have called him.
So I have no axe to grind with any of these individuals.
So guys, let's do away with the hypocrisy -- if you are going to
question the ethics of Mark or anyone else who is a critic of Omega,
then have the honesty -- or at least the cajones, to fault Omega for
releasing a bug-ridden piece of soft-ware that is plainly a diserrvice
to its customers.
