Dear Rob,
I hadn't heard that. I was a bit dismayed at the state of packaging of the
ULowell Board. The one which arrived for the Purdue University Computing
Fair was sans instructions and was shipped in a plain white carton. The
UXD which arrived was shipped with draft manuals which didn't cover how to
turn-on the ULowell board.
After a phone call to John Higgins of Commodore Inside Sales, he completely
squared away our knowledge gap in how to use the board. In my book, John
Higgins is one of Commodore's bright shining stars. He definitely
contributed to a successful show at Purdue. (Also notewrthy in the fair's
success was Mr. Larry Noetlich, Central Regional Sales Manager, and Mr.
Steve Johnson, C='s Chicago-based account executive).
I am aware of the DMI Resolver as that company has faxed me specs in hopes
that I will pick-up the product. The price point (retail) is around $2000
at last check. (One of my people provided me that info; I don't recall the
exact price). At any rate, it was significantly higher than the ULowell
Board.
