0607 -
060701 - Follow up ref SDS 10 0000, ref SDS 9 0000.
060702 -
060703 - Marty's voice mail says he is out of the office until Thursday.  I
060704 - put a follow up in for next Friday, 950519.

0610 - Progress
0611 -
061101 - Central issue is the impact on os2 of using DOS with the settings at
061102 - ref SDS 10 line 57.
061103 -
061104 -     Seems like the diskcaching is fouled up.  We are probably writing
061105 -     stuff to disk.
061107 -  ..
061108 - Tried to call for site visit by IBM rep.
061110 -  ..
061111 - Talked to John.  He asked for the problem number.  I gave him the
061112 - number and advised that Marty sent an EM that we can arrange for a
061113 - site visit by an IBM service rep by calling the regular service
061114 - number, ref DRP 1 line 41.
061116 -  ..
061117 - John said he is not familiar with that procedure.  John asks me to
061118 - hold on while he consults with his supervisor.
061120 -  ..
061121 - John comes back on line and says his supervisor says that Marty at the
061122 - level 2 support is positioned to arrange for on-site os2 support. He
061123 - wants to re-queue my call to Level 2, where I can explain our
061124 - objective. I object to this on the grounds that we have a written
061125 - representation by Marty who is at Level 2, that Level 2 does not
061126 - schedule on-site support, ref DRP 1 line 41.  John said he does not
061127 - know what to do.
061129 -  ..
061130 - I asked for John's supervisor.  John asks me to hold.
061132 -  ..
061133 - Talked to Ashley.  Turns out I erred.  I did not dial the 800 number
061134 - given by Marty, but the regular 407 number in Boca.

061501 - Could not get through to anyone to arrange for support or even to
061502 - find out how much it costs.  There was an option to send stuff by
