My impression is that they take their feedback from customers that

mythical "Web 2.0" garbage that keeps infecting the internet.

Except that, in Cisco's case, it's "Web 2.0(45a)SXB12b." And it doesn't actually work.

What's amazing is that after several tries to get the stoopid thing to work, I still had to rename the files (with the embedded backslashes mentioned before). Clearly, they didn't test on any platform other than Oscar Bauer's Windows XP machine. That's such a fundamental violation of any interoperability standard that it's laughable.

I talked to Oscar, while I do agree with the image that you paint, he also claimed that there was testing on more than 1 platform/OS. I don't know how broad this is, but you should continue to make your feedback well known. You can have your SE send him an email as well as those in his mgmt chain if you do not feel his responses were good enough for your needs.

I honestly think he is going to address this issue. I think the workaround process of opening a TAC case for each image you want to download will help keep this process at the forefront of the radar on the support org.

Also, if you got the Walker Survey, make sure your sales rep understands the impact this has on your responses. Their bonus is impacted based on this response.
