Does anyone out there know the new number for pioneer computing ?
I have been trying to call them all week for information on their
products with no luck. Today I started getting a number dis-connected
message. I wouldn't care to much normally, but they owe me an upgrade
kit I paid for last month and havn't received. If anyone in the Salt Lake
area could check on this or get me a new number I would appreciate it.

I have a hard disk from pioneer computing that has worked great for a couple of years but now it looks like I can forget about any future support. What are the legal ramifications of copying software that one has paid for but never received? I'd be interested in hearing from anyone with recent experience with this company, either successful or unsuccessful. ____________________________________________________________________________ Dan McCauley 4410 Salton 2B Las Vegas, NV 89109 702-369-5751

I have I have heard that Pioneer Computing was ROBBED around the holidays and their entire inventory was taken.

It seems that the blood-suckers don't want to make good on the insurance. They do have some small amount of their inventory left, but whoever stole the stuff definately knew what they were taking and nicked the better part of PC's inventory. I'll ask about their status at the next user's group meeting if anyone's interested. -- Rich -- Rich Thomson thomson@cs.utah.edu {bellcore,hplabs}!utah-cs!thomson "Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
