[rescue] Re: Solaris 9 issues

*DING* *DING* *DING*!  We have a winner!

Every Sun rep that I've ever talked to has mirrored that same philosophy.  
Yeah, so you're running Solaris w/o a license.  At least you're not running NT! 

I really enjoyed my last rep - he used to walk by the NT servers, put his 
fingers into a 'cross' and hiss at them LOUDLY.  Like 'Interview with a 
vampire' loud.  Hysterical.

I'll never forget the time that we were moving some racks and he dropped 
an A5000 series from about a foot height onto his toe (wearing leather 
dress shoes).  I asked if he 
wanted to go to the hospital and he said no - he just kept on working.  By 
the time we were done with the move, he couldn't walk anymore (more of a 
'hop').  He wanted to finish the install.

That my friends, is FSCKING DEDICATION to your craft.

M$ won't even return phone calls.

Go Sun!

(just ordered my Sol9 media kit!! W00t!)
