OMG!!!!

TWO versions of CRASH!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like........

....a train crash waiting to happen.

It's time......

......to switch to GiffGaff.

Ah - SAP.......

CRAP as usual. WHY don't people LEARN that SAP is German for CRAP?

Just some more.....

....untested crap from MicroCRAP.

Dear Microsoft

Try actually TESTING. It works wonders for your reputation. (Or at least it USED TO).

I strung along one of the "Microsoft here" people for 20 minutes once before telling him where to shove his computer. Great fun! DON'T MESS WITH PENSIONERS!!!! Especially retired IT ones. :) :)

Oh well....

...another failed Government IT project on the way.

"....to improve the reliability and quality of our updates."

SERIOUSLY NEEDED. Have Microcrap only just realised what the rest of the world already knew?

Near Miss

We were with Tesco, who were going to shunt us over to CrapCrap without really telling us.

Whew! near miss - switched to PlusNet instead. Now THEIR customer service is just that - SERVICE.

Bunch of Tossers ( BT ) strikes again

Perhaps they should change their corporate name?

The MINIMUM punishment should be....

....removal of his testicles

What is wrong with.....

.......switching to GiffGaff? Best of both PAYG and contract. If you want to pay monthly, then buy a "Goodybag" and set it to repeat monthly. IF you want to change tarif every month or switch to PAYG, then you can do that EVERY/ANY month. If you wanted to move your number away from GiffGaff (why would you do that???), you can get your PAC from the website, unlike other providers who desperately argue that you should stay with them and only give the PAC code when you threaten to report them to the regulator.

Yet another meaning for the letters IBM.....

It's Being Miserly

Another government-sponsored project.....

...about to cost £MEEELIONS before failing completely.

Ah! - The "Paperless Office"

About as likely and useful as the Paperless LOO

Only a £70,000 fine...........?

Hanging would be too good for them.

I can't really see.....

...Microsoft making significant inroads into a market dominated by something which works well, is "universal" and cost-effective (Android) or over-priced and sold to "believers" (IOS).

Microcrap missed the boat on smartphones and are now in the process of screwing up the PC market which they used to "own".

Roll on the Android desktop/laptop.

Microsoft going down the pan big time

NT6.1 (Windows 7) wasn't broke, so they "fixed" it, so now it's SERIOUSLY broken.

Apart from Government IT Systems....

The winners (losers) have GOT to be npower and Scottish Power, who implemented SAP billing systems clearly without ANY useful testing whatsoever, resulting in sanctions from the regulator, fines, compensation to customers and (of course) lost customers.

It's about time...

...that Adobe CRASH was put where it belongs - in the IT bin of history

Ah....

...ANOTHER government IT mega-failure pending implementation.

Re-arrange these words to form a well-known saying....

Leaving a rats ship sinking

A dose of reality

Windows took over the desktop despite NOT being the best technology (bit like VHS vs Betamax).

Android is taking over the tablet/smartphone despite NOT being the best technology.

Microsoft should not waste any more effort/money chasing a market already lost.

Roll on Android on the desktop/laptop for the same reasons that Windows took that marketplace.

In the meantime Bluestacks works quite well. (www.bluestacks.com)

Yet another Government IT disaster on it's way?

Virtually guaranteed!

Q: Who on earth buys S(CR)AP?

A!: npower.

A2: Scottish Power

- the 2 energy companies bottom of the ratings list for customer service and top of the Energy Ombudsman's list for complaints. Guess who provides their billing systems?

BRILLIANT!

Get a monopoly and a BRILLIANT new logo - nice one The Register.

Ah - SAP.......

The system that generates customer complaints to regulators in place of energy bills (npower and Scottish Power).

"Sap" is often used as a derogatory term.

SAP is ALWAYS a derogatory system.

WANKERS!!!!!!

Oh wait! - they are not that self - starting.

Why?......

......would anyone who looks at such things EVER even think of implementing a CRAP, sorry I mean SAP system?

Some simple math

Crapita + O2 = DOUBLE disaster.

Go GiffGaff (best of contract AND PAYG)!

Probably just as well

Anything I ever bought from Imation was CRAP!
