Ah, but I meant whining in That Good Way -

;)

The collective talent as found on this (and many other) forum sites in regards to making our technology work is outstanding - but we've just about hit the wall as far as reporting the problems to each other and trying fixes or work-arounds is concerned.

Its now (past) time for Dell and/or Microsoft to take responsibility for the technology they issued and 'make it right' for their users.

If, for whatever reason, the head of a company is not hearing about problems that appear to directly and adversely affect their products, their reputation and potentially, their bottom line, then sorry, but their chain of command is not working properly. If that means someone has to jump the line to bring it to the attention of those higher up the food chain, then I have no problem with that happening.

And if that knowledge results in a little sh*t-disturbing that causes the issues to be resolved rather than simply begrudgingly acknowledged, then isn't that better for both consumer and the Company?

I don't know (or care) who is responsible for the shoddy workmanship of this OS /AS upgrade in regards to the Axim it is meant to apply to. I do know that it should never have hit the street as is - essentially a rough Beta fobbed off as a Gold release. And if the Powers That Be weren't aware there was a problem, they are now - with luck.
