New page

The same information found on this page is on the [[Thrift Store]] wiki page, so if we update one, we'll have to update both. It might be a better idea to point to this page from the thrift store page (and get rid of the repeats), or do away with this one.

 I think the current way of handling grant-related discounts works and is worth documenting. We may come up with another way, but sounds like we're sticking with this for a while at least[[User:Tonyc|Tonyc]]

-I'd change the sentence on "once you install windows..." to "once you install another operating system (i.e. Windows)..." or "once you install windows or any other operating system..."
+As far as customers touching other customers' stuff, (such as performing actual work on another customer's computer just cuz they're nice people) I think the current practice of making sure they're explicitly stating that they are not affiliated with FG, and we can do the same.[[User:Tonyc|Tonyc]]
-Reason is we don't really want to come off like anti-windows snobs. Rather we just can't support OSs that we don't have time for.
+Another policy that's not stated on this is the use of the store computers for product research and demonstration purposes only.[[User:Tonyc|Tonyc]]

-You mean we aren't anti-windows snobs?  Just joking, but I suspect a number of us are to varying extents.  I do agree with what you are saying and like the point about not supporting OSs we don't have time for though, for another reason.  We don't want people to come in and say "You just said I couldn't install windows, you didn't say anything about ___."

-While I'm thinking of it, I found another possible change to make.  I think I read on the store prices page that we aren't selling tech support tickets right now, we should probably reflect that here as well.
