My company buys a lot of Rockwell product. It's nice to hear they are making money...they charge top dollar for their stuff.

do they also hear Michael Jackson singing to them from beyond the grave during the chorus?

Wow. Haven't thought about that song in years. Had it on a 45 once upon a long ago.

Might as well... (new window)

Now if only Rockwell would cut it out a bit on the excessive software protection that runs everything to a crawl. Yes I am looking at you Allen Bradley control software!

Since that I'm seeing more and more WWTFs lately, I'm not really surprised.

Yes, but they will only have that feeling for 15 minutes, then the feeling will fade into obscurity.

Someone has been listening to the 80s station on SiriusXM. That song has gotten some love in recent weeks.

Bujt oddly the Micrologix 1400 kills anything GE or Modicon has at that end of the market. I mean, the Versamax is darn near 2X for a comparable thing, and the Twido? Good lord Twidosoft sucks ass...

Rockwell's Unofficial Policy is

"You can find better, but you'll never pay more"

I hear Siemens is eating their lunch and kicking then in the dick in Michigan.

Rockwell is supposedly really good because it's easy to learn, and that's a humungous benefit to the nations up-and-coming sorta-controls-engineering types.

I loled.

Standard Rockwell Customer statements.. probably in order.

Why do I need rsLogix AND rsNetworks again? I have to discover in one then import into the other?
What do you mean the versions are out of sync and not capable of working together?
WTF! You said upgrading the module would fix the problem. Now you say there is no possible way what so ever to downgrade this PLC?
What do you mean your "support" contracts have increased 5000% in cost this year!?
