no more UPS!

[Tom Hudson]

Yup, go FedEx.  I had an 8-channel rack-mount KVM switch delivered by 
UPS one day with a huge hole punched into the side of the shipping box.  
It went right through the packing and the KVM cardboard box, and I 
figured the unit was a goner.  Luckily, the thing was OK because the 
manufacturer had that nice foam suspension frame in there that gave it 
that little extra bit of space.

Of course, the UPS guy had just left it on my doorstep -- I guess the 
shipper didn't require a signature -- I took photos before and during 
opening the package to prove that it was trashed by them.  Luckly, I 
didn't need the photos.  I would have thought they'd leave some kind of 
slip mentioning the damage.  HA!!!
