NYC recovery: vendor assistance
This is more systems than networking, but I thought I'd throw it out to see if we can get info on other vendors. Sun has apparently decided that they will ship replacement systems to any NYC customer who lost their infrastructure in the attacks on Tuesday without waiting for paperwork, POs, etc. Reputedly word from On High (Ed Zander). There are still some shipping delays, but they're working with the military transport program on real priority shipments via SunFed. If anyone (or given this list, anyone's customers) lost Sun systems and are having problems procuring replacements, try contacting Sun's sales force in NYC rather than VARs etc. and ask about that program. I don't have clear details on what hoops people are having to jump through but Sun is apparently trying to be as cooperative and proactive as possible once they know someone needs gear. I suspect other vendors are doing much the same; some posts from anyone aware of the status there would be useful, if anyone knows. -george william herbert gherbert@retro.com
