My original post was driven by shock. There I had been, at an Informix User conference, listening to Malcolm Padina (UK Managing Director) telling us that they had increased sales, a VERY healthy bank balance, and even better products in the pipeline... However a price increase was announced, it would be in the region of 10% to 15%. This was only annoying since it was an increase higher than inflation and we are in recession... Then my distributor sends me the new price list. No matter how hard I try I cannot make 113% look like 15%! Now this, I agree is not across the board. The low end machines that are having far higher price increases with respect to high end machines. When I last asked the percentage of users running on 486 PC's the answer given was about 20%... It seems certain that I'm not the ony VAR in a state of shock. -- Paul Mahoney, X-Act Solutions Limited smail: 20 Shipley Lane, Cooden, Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, TN39 3SR email: ptm@xact.demon.co.uk ... pmahoney@cix.compulink.co.uk phone: +44 424 3 6368
