    Happy Thanksgiving to all...

    Hello all,

    Just wanted to say - hope everyone has a very safe & happy Thanksgiving Holiday! (or weekend, even, for some lucky folks)

    In fact, I'm curious - how many of you are going to be open on Friday? Would be interesting to do a poll on that.

    I voted yes -- of course, I don't have a wife and children, so that would also influence my decision.

    Open every day here regardless. Heck I even check my own e-mail on Xmas day. Holidays are usually pretty slow, but we've even had signups on Xmas Day and New Years Eve in the past.

    Our offices will be closed, but there are a few techs that have volunteered to monitor email from home. So, although we will be closed, the clients are still taken care of

    Happy Thanksgiving btw.

    Still open through holidays, just on lite schedule. (which just means I won't be checking various places every 5 mins, but more like every other hour)
    Regards,
    Eric

    I really envy you US guys sometimes (well for some things at least) - it just isn't fair that you get a holiday now

    Just kidding - I wish all of you happy thanksgiving

    Just the bare minimum (ie: support, new account activations, etc). None of the 'projects' that are lined up will be done, not doing anything that we don't *absolutely have* to do

    But holidays are so slow anyway, for US customers. Overseas customers just see it as business as usual.

    Both sales and technical support will be open here. Usually holidays don't bring in that many support issues/problems.

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
