    Hey Guys,

    I noticed that some orders, from Dell, contain the postfix "OCFT" in the names/titles of the units.

    What does "OCFT" actually mean?

    Hmmm, I never even noticed it before; do you have an example of where it appears?

    Also, you might want to trim down your signature to 4 lines as per the forum rules. It'll only be time before a mod asks you to.

    Regards

    I've searched & searched and the only references I can find are back to this forum and specifically posts made by CSharpZealot. Let's hope it doesn't mean OrderCancelledFunTimes or something!

    I've seen it a few times - however, searching Dell's site reveals nothing, nor does Bing - only entries i see anywhere are those questions i've put up :)
