    DIGITAL engineer is impressed with a supplier's hardware.  Would like
    to see the product sold thru DECDIRECT.

DECdirect still exists, though who knows if it will be undergoing a name
change to be "Digital Direct" or something even less euphonious.

3521.4 'strue I tell you!!!! SUBURB::POWELLMNostalgia isn't what it used to be!Mon Nov 21 1994 13:2211
    
    	JP, you are on the wrong side of the pond, so I can't be definitive
    for you, but over here on the right side, DECdirect (for which I worked
    in Pre-Sales Tech. Support) ceased to exist at the end of September.  I
    was strongly under the impression that this was a world wide thing,
    since everything is going over to Partners, Resellers, VARs and Uncle
    Tom Cobbly and all!
    
    	"Our" 0800 number continues to exist, but it isn't DECdirect!

    re: -.2
    
    Yep... The new name is Customer Order Management Center (I believe)...
    but in essence, it's still DecDirect....
    
    re: -.1
    
    I'm on the wrong side now, but was born on the right side...  BTW, who
    is Tom Cobbly?????

    	Uncle Tom Cobbly and all, is the last line to the traditional
    English song - Whiddicombe Fair.
