Customer Annoyance

For a company which likes to position itself as a key component of the Internet and indispensible supplier of hardware for web-based transactions, Sun Microsystems sucks pretty badly.

Their online support case system is down currently. That's never a good sign.

Telephoning their support number instead, I'm discussing issues with a guy who can't find any information under my ESID, our company's contract code or even our company name. Even when I gave him the disk model information (ST39103LC), he couldn't find it in their parts catalog.

There goes 30 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Grrr.
