None too popular on the Bonanza owners list, either.

It has not so much to do with "stupid" as it does "arrogance".

It's the way a lot of American companies do business nowadays.

My accountant spends about 10 hours a month fixing billing "errors" (i.e.,
always in THEIR favor) and the most typical response is essentially "we'll
fix it when we gat around to it", which is typically after three or four
follow-up calls.

I notice it's become a lot more prevalent since the Republicans took over
Congress.

I noticed the same thing, but blamed it on a differrent cause. The .com
boom. Computer billing systems that make mistakes against the company get
fixed immediately. Also, so many people were making so much money they did
not have time to care about overbilling.

Another issue is that the Justice Department, part of the executive, has
been worthless since the mid 90's. Bush has not yet fixed it either. I
wouldn't blame that on Congress though.

The errors we've seen have nothing to do with computer errors. Most often
it's for unordered materials and labor charges. Those are entry errors and
likely deliberate.

Also, so many people were making so much money they did
not have time to care about overbilling.

At any level of income, about three-fourths of people won't catch it, or
find it worthless (not to mention too aggravating) to call them on it.

Are you talking about the 1990's or the 1890's? Either one is valid. :~)

If congress makes the laws that allows or pooh-poohs such behavior (not to
mention encourages it; see the recent telemarketing and "anti-spam"
laws...worthless) the executive branch can't do much.

Sigh!!! Corporate suicide.

Evidently many companies don't realize that they can't hide their
stupidity/arrogance like they used to.

So, don't upgrade the software? I have a JPI-700 (never registered it, if
I'm supposed to...it came with my plane) and don't really see anything that
would encourage me to change it.

In almost five years I'm had it, I've downloaded data to it only once.

That'll work fine as long as JPI never touches your JPI-700. At
Sun-n-fun, a Piper list member was told that all new monitors and any
old ones that come in for service will have their firmware upgraded and
will no longer work with older versions of the program (that allow you
to convert the data).
