Re: [cobalt-users] Is There A Real Difference w/ The RAQ4??

Ultimately the problem is that there are fewer and fewer businesses that you
can trust from the get go.  It has become almost a policy for many companies
to not give a damn.  Those that you do trust from the start are normally
those that you have intimate knowledge of.  Keep in mind you cannot trust
the BBB as their reports are next to useless, and often times people do not
report when a company is poor.  Most people simply shrug it off and go on
with their life.  In truth, in my years in business, I have had companies
from the small to the multi-million act in unethical and a poor manner.  In
many cases the only true test of a company is to try it out yourself.  Keep
in mind also cobaltracks.com was rated excellent by everyone just a few
months ago - things change fast.

I actually purchased a server yesterday and am completing contract
negotiations on a leased line in a facility I have 24/7 access to myself!
The more I can control, the safer I am!

Thank you,
