| 58567 | 2004-07-19 10:50:00 | DSE Told me that there was no way I could put a 10/100 Mbps NIC in any machine below 98. The next week I had 4 machines working perfectly, with Windows 95 - all 100 Mbps. | Growly (6) | ||
| 58568 | 2004-07-19 11:05:00 | Not everything DSE sayshould be taken at face value. You can get both 10/100 ISA & PCI cards, RJ45 and Coax cards for Win95 :-) |

| 58571 | 2004-07-19 11:54:00 | Why not seek advice from where you can get it? Advice here on PressF1 is freely given but none of us have to take the advice you or others including me give. Are you saying that ALL people at DSE know nothing? If I listen rather than talk I learn more! That's just me though. |

Not at all, I said I pity the fool who goes there looking for advice, due to the fact they are primarily salesmen then its only potluck that you will get any advice that is not utter rubbish. My local store has a couple of good knowledgeable people working there, and an entire brigade of idiots...hence it’s a poor choice when looking for advice. To many times I’ve been called out to "set-up" gear purchased from DSE only to tell the customer to take all the junk back as it’s far from being the right gear. |

I can understand that. In your opinion anyone who goes to a DSE is a "FOOL" > My local store has a couple of good knowledgeable > people working there, and an entire brigade of > idiots...hence it’s a poor choice when looking for > advice. So when I walk into a DSE store in Hamilton for example how do I sort the people who know as opposed to "the brigade of idiots"? In among the brigade of idiots in any store there will be people who know. > > To many times I’ve been called out to "set-up" gear > purchased from DSE only to tell the customer to take > all the junk back as it’s far from being the right > gear. But!!! The person who wanders into DSE in Wanganui has a choice do they not? Living in Tokoroa as I do then I have the choice to shop elsewhere as I do from time to time. I bought a TV card from DSE in Hamilton recently. It works for me. I spent most of last night watching the British Open Golf on this card and went to bed around 3:00 a.m. I recorded the rest on to my hard drive and saw the rest before the news came on. Are you not a salesperson? Does this make you a fool? People whom may be looking for a full system or a pci card or RAM or whatever are called Customers. Customers have money hopefully. If people have money then they can buy what they want from where they want I would hope. One day you may learn this. :-} |

| 58576 | 2004-07-19 13:16:00 | 1."pity the fool" is a MR T quote from the 80's show The A Team,its meant to be over the top. 2.Im not a salesman,i own a Repair center that carries retail items. You can no more get sound computer advice from DSE then you can get sound car mechanical advice from a car salesman,they are 2 seperate breeds of fools |
