Re: [PLUG] OT: Linux Business Forum
|
I am a reseller. I can provide an end-to-end solution for interested
clients. Not everyone will obviously want that, but many will find it
convenient that they can call me for all issues, everything from network
to server to desktop. As a reseller, I can service units quicker and
easier than if I had to call Gateway or Compaq or Dell for service. And if
I require my client to make the call, then I'm not providing good
services. That is the way I see it anyway.
I appreciate your feedback. I'm working on the navigation. I didn't
realize it was a real problem until a friend of mine had trouble this
morning. It has been ok for me in IE5 ad 5.5 and mozilla.
