Dave P., With all due respect, sir, if you had a residential customer with a mega-buck grand that didn't work, you'd expect the courtesy of a 'complaint' call before the customer decided to condemn your product publicly. Fair? And you might even mutter something (under your breath) about the customer's common sense around letting a major investment deteriorate like that. Maybe? Again, with respect. I've just know that it's real frustrating to hear about complaints when the customer hasn't even called. There's two manufacturers represented with that piano, and I betcha they'd love to have the instrument fully utilized and showing off their stuff. Even though the new BPO units don't use Pianodisc. Ask. It COULD benefit the dept., you think? Guy At 07:40 PM 6/18/97 -0700, you wrote: >David, List: > >We have one Baldwin "R" grand with a pianodisk here at SMU.
