Re: [foxboro] foxboro Digest V4 #108

Greetings,

We are doing a project that involves both Fox I/A and Honeywell.  They =
both have ++ points and it is always difficult to choose based on PURE =
facts.  I maintain the difference at the end of the day (regardless of =
deficiencies) is based on the the ability of the host company to support =
their product.  It is painful to have to always explain why your problem =
is the most important one to work on.  I realize that companies have =
limited resources, but they should not advertise products that perform =
as advertised in "future" releases.
