The 7 does some weird stuff along with loosing memory and scary off the charts stuff. The 7 needs an exorcist.

By themselves, the Partner ACS R1->R6 processors are a 3x8 configuration. The R7 is a 5x9.

The original inspiration behind the R7 was only to take the R6 and put two more CO lines and another extension on that same package making a 5x9 out of the 3x8 R6. This apparently was to make an economical standalone solution for those popular 4 or 5 line by 9 or less extension systems. Previously if you needed more than 3 lines or 8 extensions you would have to add a carrier and an expansion module to the R6. Problem is they went overboard over in Elbonia where they design this stuff. (Read Dilbert if you want to know where Elbonia is. ) Instead of just adding a few new ports they played with the software and made other changes too and totally screwed it up. The height of incompetance was when they put it into production without simple testing so they didn't even noticing that it had major problems. It doesn't end there though. When they start getting them back they come out with a patch that fixes the original problem but causes another. Then they create a patch for that problem that causes yet another problem and the situation hasn't been resolved yet. It does need an exorcist. The damn thing spits pea soup out of it's card slot and spins around all by itself. -Hal

This is so funny. I was channel surfing last night and this girl caught my eye. It was Linda Blair in Exorcist II. So the Partner is like Linda Blair. Real cute till the spitting starts.

I have an R7 in use here @ home. I must have lucked out. No processor problems at all. Had to send a Euro II 18D in for repair, but that's about the extent of my problems. :shrug:

the new IP hype reminds me of years ago when the big thing was trying to get people to change from analog to digital systems so they could run data through their phones. How many people changed to just one network then? Some people can use IP but to most they don't need it, maybe just a Vonage type line or two
