Pat, Round about the middle of March I asked you about getting the automatic upgrade to SBPro4 (1.01), you looked in your database, found I wasn't there, added me, & said to get in touch with Oxxi UK for the upgrade. In the intervening time I have written to Oxxi UK, received a reply saying Oxxi would be delighted to supply the upgrade if I said what machine I wanted the upgrade for (?!), replied saying it was an Amiga, waited and finally recived a letter yesterday saying that I had to send my registration card to Oxxi in the US, who would automatically send an upgrade… I would also point out that I bought SBPro4 as an upgrade, in response to a mailshot from Precision, & that the previous version of SBPro I had was also bought from Precision as an upgrade. I have sent in the registration card for each version… I am NOT feeling happy. This is the first time I have had any dealings with Oxxi, and on the evidence of the above, I am not impressed. I can understand that picking up the product from another company will have made life difficult, so please Pat, convince me this is a one-off silly, and get my upgrade sorted. Cheers Graham

Graham: Sorry to take so long to respond, I've been in England for three weeks. I have made a note of your problem, and have the solution ready to go into the mail for you today (mail out tomorrow). I can only apologise, and offer as explanation that the office has been short-handed here with me gone. Regards, Whap!penned… Pat @Oxxi (310) 427-1227

Pat, I remember you were out to England, and wasn't expecting an instant response. I do realise problems do happen – especially when one company takes over from another – the important thing is willingness to take action to solve the problem – look forward to receiving the mail. Shame you couldn't 've dropped in whilst you were in England – I'm only 2 miles from Slough :-). Thanks very much Cheers Graham

Oh NO! I wish I'd known! Are you in Windsor or Eton? I cycled out to the castle while I was there, otherwise I didn't have time to do any sightseeing… Regards, Whap!penned… Pat @Oxxi (310) 427-1227

I'm in Eton – in a little road off the High Street. You probably cycled past the end of it… Oh well – if you visit Oxxi UK again… (& unlike them, I do have a modem 😉 ) Cheers Graham

Yes, Graham, I definitely did go past the end of your street. Probably not actually ON the bike, though — It was a little narrow for my taste, especially since I was (to my subconscious, anyway) cycling on the wrong side of the road. My rear-view mirror is mounted on the wrong side of the helmet to do me any good. Ah, well… Regards, Whap!penned… Pat @Oxxi (310) 427-1227
