Excepts from a Fictional Conversation between a Client and a Avid Rep:

 

REP:    Symphony Nitris is the real way to go, don’t waste your money on a DS.

Symphony Nitris is the ultimate conform Platform for serious Editing Facilities.

Symphony Nitris is the Future!

Uncompressed HD, Secondary Color Correction, Tracker you have all the tools to have a happy Life!

All that with a Media Composer Interface!

No need to re-learn anything!

 

Client:   But we bought a DS Nitris last year, why buy a Symphony?

 

REP:    We’re sorry for those who bought a DS, it was a mistake from our part to make you think that was the Future.

No hard feelings, Right?

We can give you a 5000$US discount/trade off If you buy a Symphony Nitris.

Interested?

I’m sending you a quote right now!

 

Client:   When is it going to be ready?

 

Rep:     Heu..well soon, very soon.

 

Client:   Is it buggy?

 

Rep:     You got to be kidding me right?

We have no bugs/issues whatsoever in any of our Avid Product Line, well not true, sorry, we have some bugs in the DS, but all the other products are fine!

But who cares about the DS, right?

It’s our black sheep, don’t even think about it, it’s a dead product anyway.

Done deal?

What’s the PO number?

 

P.S. Do I sound convincing? Could I be an Avid Rep?

            I honestly hope that anything in this conversation is close to the Truth…………………..
