It's pretty much the latter. The only time I get what I would call good
service is on my Origin 200, which we pay 24x7 hardware support for -- and
then, the service is great. Actually, the hardware support isn't too bad in
general, the software support is what can be a pain in the ass...

And remember, this is calling for NEW computers that we pay support on. You
can't really get into their system without a supported system serial #. You
could always try giving them the serial for your 4D/35 -- who knows, someone
might (accidently) still be paying maintenace on it :)

good luck, in any case...
