Okay, only speaking for myself but with a little RC engineer bias,
of course... I have seen quite a number of postings in the past
that started with such a phrase or similar wording.

This makes me wonder...

Does the "let's better ask HP RC and 3000-L at the same time" give
an indication that you do not trust the HP RC to call back within
reasonable time (depending on the priority/criticality you indicated
when starting the RC call) or to be able to deliver a reasonable
solution?

When there is a helpful response from HP3000-L then the RC engineer
will basically have wasted valuable time he could have been spending
helping other customers... So would it probably be reasonable to ask
HP3000-L first and call the HP RC later on, if still needed?

Hey, not trying to sound offensive... just curious...
