m 7 says:
i worked my @$$ off at Trimble navigation for 8 years
m 7 says:
you can still find my work on their site
m 7 says:
anyways, when they booted me at xmas 1998
m 7 says:
i got invited to com to ashtech (trimble's arch enemy)
m 7 says:
my pal at trimble still, and i , had a bit of a rivalry going
m 7 says:
ashtechs equipment is better
m 7 says:
so the whole summer of 1999 we had a lot of head to head equipment tsts and eachtime the ashtech stuff won..
m 7 says:
well, trimbles software was always crashing.
m 7 says:
meanwhile ashtechs software just worked.
m 7 says:
it was at one night as we sat musing about our respective companies and another head to head.
m 7 says:
we put the Ashtch Reliance Software up against Trimble's Pathfinder Office Professional
m 7 says:
When the Trimble software crashed immediately during the test , i burst out laughing hysterically
m 7 says:
I took a screen shot of the error message
m 7 says:
and made an animated commercial for Reliance
m 7 says:
I was on the quality team for Reliance and my name is in the software of Reliance 4.0
