I got this same sales call from a woman from that company yesterday. They wanted to sell us Apps consulting. When I told her we don't use that product, she was real flustered and hung up. What a PITA! -- Ron Reidy Lead DBA -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Baumgartel, Paul Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 3:44 PM To: oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: New record for sales call? I just got off the phone with a woman from a company called IT Convergence. She called me to say that she had heard I was looking for help with a RAC migration project. At first I couldn't imagine where she had gotten such information--then it dawned on me that I had posted here earlier today asking for opinions about the best way to upgrade 9i RAC to 10g. When I mentioned this, the caller agreed that someone from her company probably was monitoring the list to generate sales leads. I don't know what the policy of the list is with respect to subscribers using it as a source for sales prospects, but I was sure annoyed.
