Really Lawrence ? That's the best you can come up with ? :-)

In fairness to you however, I probably couldn't have done any better
if I had backed myself into the kind of corner that you are now in
and was looking for a way out. One difference however is that I would
NOT be willing to unfairly and wrongly put down a major vendor just
so I could find an escape route.

For the record however, I am a seriously technical type, not a management
type and I sincerely hope that certain people around here were not eating
or drinking anything when you described me in the above words. :-)

Simon.
