Greg:
I should have been more specific but I was taking about people who
had to support and work with their products. I remember specifically
at SHARE several conversations, McKinney came up and the best they
got was yea somebody bought it and didnt go through the software
selection commee and they got grandfathered in otherwise we wouldn't
even consider them.

found only messages regarding MacKinney that are either positive or
neutral. The only negative comments I can find are from you.
I won't argue whether the circumstances you describe actually
happened or not, but if the experiences of others who post to this
list have any value to you (I'm sure mine don't but others might),
you could consider that it was an anomaly.
((If anyone from MacKinney is following this thread and your
company actually has a fund for "paid lackies" please contact me
off-list!))

Greg:
I am surprised a little bit by your attitude and am disappointed in
your suggestion.
I wasn't going to mention it but since you seemed to infer I wasn't
professional I will add:
Another person in the group I was in had a similar issue with them.
The person was happy he didn't have to call as he had gotten a blank
wall from McKinney as well.
I don't recall the product and I am not about to insult you with
suggestion about being a paid lacky for Mckinney.
I have never heard anything positive about them. In the last say 20
years I guess the negatives outweigh anything.
I never thought highly of the company as their postage card return to
order their product was a little bit less than professional in my
opinion.
Yes they are a cheap software company and I will repeat you get what
you pay for.
