Even I get it wrong

I'm a reseller of ESET Nod32 its pretty easy really someone asks for X amounts I pop the figure in an excel spreadsheet and back comes the price. I've just quoted a 15 User for 2 Years when the customer emailed " Can you do anything on the price? We've looked at some Internet sites and can get it cheaper ". Getting the hump as usual I mailed back asking if they could provide the URL so I could look into it, to my surprise they mailed back saying it was ESET's own site! Now I'd quoted £444.40 however they had a price of £433.20 when I checked my price matrix I found they was right and I was wrong. Mind you fancy moaning about £11.20 But yes even I get it wrong sometimes.

Maintenance

Why do people perform maintenance on websites at prime times of the day? Just lately Joomla Forge has taken to doing it in the middle of the day, this is really annoying when you want to preview an extension or even download one. If it must be done in the day run a mirror image locally to work on then you just update the live site which should not affect the end user.
