Nice to know

seeing as the company i work for is just me and the boss (don't get much smaller) and we're on 60 days with computacenter..

must mean we're bigger than we thought...

and they screwed up the last payment run.. so they reckon.. which means they're even more behind this month

Normal practice 

Not really surprised about CC doing this. They just want to make a few extra pennies interest on the cash coming in before it goes out and screw their channel. Why on earth people buy from them is beyond me and has puzzled me for over 15 years now. In fact if CC and Dell went bump I'd be quite happy actually.

We are a small company with just 20 people and we have been forced onto 60 days. It was made pretty clear that refusal would affect our supplier status.

Maybe the Reg should canvas readers to find out who the 60 suppliers are and how big they are. I bet many of them read this.

I also bet that Microsoft, HP, etc didn't go 60 days.
