Re Fujitsu. My view of them may be skewed by how a public sector client I was contracting at used them to outsource a CRM 'solve all our problems' solution () that quickly became very expensive and undeliverable resulting in der management outsourcing the whole IT dept. I'm sure it turned out all right in the end.Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.Comment

Originally posted by xoggoth View PostPublic sector has always been crap. When I was in a company that did contracts for them back in the 80s, they always added a significant percentage to the estimated cost on the grounds that there would be various cockups requiring significant changes. Recall them complaining that a function was about 3 lines longer than their arbitrary limit, the fact that it performed the necessary task as succinctly as possible was irrelevant.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
