Customer Comments

'I purchased the Painter CD from VTC. I first heard of your company from a review in the Computer Link, a section of the San Diego Union Tribune. From there I checked out your web site, and got your phone no. John (Heck, vice president) and Rochelle (Carrera, administration manager) were very helpful and courteous when I called with a problem installing the CD. Thanks again!'
