[comp.sys.ibm.pc] 80386 memory expansion bo

I have had alot of experience with NORTHGATE and customer 
complaints. You can get a replacement machine from NORTHGATE or 
another monther board if you play your cards right.
The memorty cards from NORTHGATE never worked! That is why they 
cannot sell you one.
Knowing this you can call  PAT BORN in charge of customer service 
and tell her the story; how you were told it was avaiable and now 
it is not and if you would have known this you wouldn't have 
bought the anchor in the first place. Misleading advertising.
Second write or call (ohh darn I forgot his name, somethin Held)
he owns the place. He is nice to talk to and will get things done.
He dosent have the time or inclination to argue. "If it don't work
he'll make someone fix it" I suggest a call after or even before 
talking to Pat Brown They are both niece people. The sales reps 
suck eggs durring lunch.
Third talk to Scott in tech support. He knows everthing.
The ram board is a dedicated board. It is my understanding that 
you won't find one that wasn't made by Nortgate, and theirs 
don't work.

In short NORTHGATE is great on customer service and tech support.
You just need to know who to talk to and how.
I should know I bought one machine had it replace twice and would 
probably buy another. (my IQ is bigger than my shoe size.)

If you wnat MR. Helds full name I will dig it out for you.
You may want to call me for my life's story with NORTHGATE.
Hope this helps

The Northgate 386 -16 comes from the factory with an EVEREX RAM 
3000 16 bit ram card acpable of 3 megs.
I know because that is what they sent in 2 of my maachines.
i have never used them though.
Do you want to?
