Re: Samsung Says Offer for Sharp’s Photocopier Unit Rejected
Yoda: Here is that release, still tough times for Sharp. After failing to advance far enough toward a manufacturing process goal, Sharp says that it will miss a March 29 deadline to receive the second half of a $120 million investment from chipmaker Qualcomm.

Re: Network Charges?
I was just reading the thread in "Announcments" about the roll out of XP SP2. I hadnt considered the security changes that would affect our current installations. All of the mavens are recommending a gradual upgrade to SP2, and I am sure that if the customer has an IT staff, they will be able to handle it. But when the rest call in with a problem, my first question will be, "have you just upgraded your XP installation with SP2?" Do you want it fixed or do you want me to come out @ $75.00/Hr.

Re: How Buyer's Habits are Changing
I think understanding how buyer's habits have changed & the amount of research they do online before agreeing to a meeting with prospective vendors is important, because the way dealers market to companies in their target market needs to change. Traditionally, dealers (regardless of size) have relied solely on salespeople canvassing or cold calling on the telephone to target prospective customers with little focus on company-supported marketing. Dealers typically do little to no email...
