I'd think it'd make their job easier. They don't fully develop a product and then have to rebuild it because they did it wrong.

I'll even rate them as "Don't release it with(out) this feature", "Would buy, but if it had X feature, I'd marry it" and "Meh". I'd like to think that I'm very good at telling you where you messed up, but that I will also help you work through it if afforded the opportunity. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mathew Howard via Af" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2014 12:03:39 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] what i need....mikrotik It really does affect a lot of our vendors, but I would have to say MikroTik is the worst. They are really good at making products that are almost perfect, but then they screw up one or two things really badly.

I really, really wish Mikrotik would make a bigger, better version of the RB750UP... it's a great design, but it needs to a bit more power (and gigabit)... more ports would be nice too, but at least I can just use a whole stack of them to get around that.
