    When the cadet salesman gets all excited over his first sale ask him if his mother really want to buy that printer.
    At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.

      I used to think that way, sales are full of ####### [use your imagination]. When there are overwhelming amount of machines going out, you'd want to hate them for being uneducated.

      But when the economy is slow, there are still machines going out, no lay offs, pay cheque didnt bounce, you gotta thank those a55 h0l3s.

      Back on topic: I'd tell clients to contact the sales if any of option is missing and suggest that they be assertive about it. (wouldnt go far enough to say harrase, but definitely imply it, but this was at telco which was real bad)
      Idling colour developers are not healthy developers.

          When the customer asks how old the (new) machine is they have just purchased, I always find a resonable pause is just long enough for sweat to appear on the salesmans brow !
