I order anything from UPS and it gets mangled. 6 months ago I ordered a 1u rackmount server and got a repack box (due to too much damage they put it in a new box) that had a 4″ diameter hole in it. Also the server was smiling it was bent so badly.
Last week I ordered a 22″ viewsonic from my midwestern campadre Nick Singley with PC Mall (best sales, vendor guy ever!) and got it today with a hole in the side of the box and styrofoam hanging out (see below for a pic). I’m going to give it the benefit of the doubt and try it out but if there is one single solitary dead pixel I’m getting a replacement.
In other news, the pesky database bug has reared it’s head again here meaning I’m likely going to be changing hosts or servers with the host. This hardware seems unstable lately.
Anyhow I’m going to get back to fixing workstations, servers and doing my best to spread the word(s) (literally) of a presenter @ Ignite Portland (I think it was Kelly Guimont) who said “but is it wrapped in bacon good”.
