Pete, Thanks for your reply. I didn't quite know waht to say when I saw the original quote. The last time I checked this was a free country, and if someone didn't want to work for a Service Bureau they could quit and go elsewhere. I have a feeling Gadfly is a captured designer who thinks his /her job is threatened by Service Bureaus. > This is a very unfair statement. There are good service bureaus and > there are bad - just like there are good OEMs and bad. If you have a > beef with a particular bureau come out and say it. Please do not paint > everyone with the same brush. Anyone could just as well say "Beware > all PCB designers - they are goof offs just looking for a pay check" > That statement would be just as far off base as your statement. > > > Pete Waddell > [log in to unmask] > > P.S. who is the PCB Gadfly??? > > Regards Fred Pescitelli Phoenix Designs 1285 Turner Rd.
