After waiting MONTHS for Commodore to ship his 1581 CP/M disk Bob Evinger
has had enough. Commdore cashed his check and then claimed the disk
wasn't in stock. They have been giving him excuses ever since.
WAKE UP, COMMODORE!!!!

No I have not received the diskette. I have officially requested a
refund of my money for it, i.e. I sent a letter with a copy of the
cancelled check to the woman I talked to originally.
As much as I would like to have it, it just isn't worth the hassle. I
dont want to sound negative. I like Commodore equipment, but a
company can't live on the hardware alone, they have to be able to
provide service. I am a programmer with a 10 million dollar company
and I have seen us and others get burned because of the kind of
organizations similar Commodore. It is for that reason that I will
not support them(CBM) by purchasing any more of their equipment.
I don't mean to get wound up, sorry. But that kind of service is just
too much. I am to the point that I am probably going to replace this
with something else. I have to wait and see on that though.
Anyway thanks for the offer, but I think that it is too late for
Commodore to mend the fence with me.
Maybe we can talk again. I can only hope that somebody at Commodore
wises up before it is too late for them.
