SamKat's rant on the internet and business.

The PC computer and system makers had better get their act together.  Most of my generation don't want to mess with the internet.  Believe me, I am quickly getting to be in the same boat.  Buying a new PC is a terrible experience as I can vouch for in getting back to usage with Hilda IV, my current PC (November 2011).  I don't want another woman like her.

So much changes consistentlyon PC's that the simple operations seem fewer and less.  Sure I am old at 79; however, I have used these things since the early 90's when the internet became more accessible and user friendly.

Many gurus are proclaiming Macs have the best operating systems.
They are more expensive but said to be worth it.

I can't seem to order anything through the ordering sites and to sell a book on Amazon Kindle, I often get lost in their forms.

Yuppies, by and large, are impressive except that they seem to forget that the customer of anything wants Price, Delivery, Quality and Service.  Screw the customer in quality and you lose them forever.   Customer service cannot be taken for granted.  Delivery channels must be open to encourage business and you had better keep your prices competitive or your business dies.  I don't care if your product is internet, toothpicks or gold.

Telephone service is worse than it has ever been in spite of cell phone usage and texting.  Calling customer service is extremely frustrating.  Robert Townsend "Up The Organization" touted the telephone operator more than his VP's years ago. Try talking with a human being today by phone ;) .What are the Young up-and-coming CEO'S thinking today.  Business is not self-perpetuating.

That is just the business side of things.  Let's soon talk about the Senators and Representatives who no longer represent their constituents.

Winston Churchill said that "Democracy is the worst form of government in the world except for any other kind."

Consider this a RANT!
