From the Interex web site today: "The roundtable sessions at HP WORLD '97 are designed to facilitate face-to-face interaction between HP employees and HP customers, based on specific topic areas. For each roundtable, HP (and in some instances, third-party) experts will sit on a panel and address user issues, both pre-submitted and from the floor. Although all issues submitted may not be addressed at the conference roundtable, every issue submitted will receive a reply from HP." Notice the last sentence. Let us see now: September, October, November, December, January - I count five plus months since HP World '97 and many questions still do not have a response. Check it out for yourself. OK, so I'm having a bad day and want to spread the pain. The Management Roundtable left such a sour taste in my mouth that it just keeps coming back to annoy me. And will continue to annoy me until there is some kind of closure. John Burke [log in to unmask]
