Hamid,
They keep their sales contact and customer support people in an
isolated CAD-free sterile environment. Just like when you want avoid patent
infringement for designing a similar product to one that is already covered by
patents. Otherwise also known as "plausible deniability".
They most certainly are never allowed to read this server list! I also
think that the fellow you talked with has now certainly been moved from a
customer contact position since he is now 'dirty', as far as being able to make
the company's claims without conflict or prejudice.
Sincerely,

I can say that I have personally experienced both and will be willing to
testify under oath to the same.
I got a call from my "Regional Altium Sales Rep" in March 2005 (last
month) to introduce himself and see if I would be interested in buying
more copies of DXP/2004 or other products. This was an Altium employee
and the caller ID did list Altium as the source of the call. I told him
that I still used 99SE and exactly what I thought about DXP/2004 (that
it is a huge step backwards). He told me flatly that this was the first
time that he had hard of someone preferring 99SE over DXP/2004 and the
only reason people are still using 99SE is because they do not have the
money to upgrade to DXP/2004. He told me that the company is not aware
of any unhappiness in the customers towards DXP/2004 and is not aware of
any customers that have gotten DXP/2004 and are still using 99SE. I am
the first one to ever report unhappiness with 99SE to the company, yes
the first customer ever.
Now you tell me, does this person not know what he is talking about or
is he a bold face liar? I will not even go into all that transpired at
led to my buying the license.
Hamid
