- I don't know about his dealings but this is not the first time I see
- users complaining about his service. The first time, he said due to
- lack of disks in the country (because of OS/2 and Windows) he couldn't
- get any disks and therefore was not able to send it. I believe the
- average waiting period for his product was 3 months.
-
- Whatever the case, it will bring negative feedback from users such as
- the above.
