The Alice way:
Panel 1
Alice: Can you email the test data to me
Vendor: We don't work that way.
Panel 2
Alice: How can you let me have the 2Mb file?
Vendor: Our company's antivirus policy not to permit the electronic transfer of files. I can however print out a hex dump of the data for you to type into your system...
Panel 3
Alice clutches a USB drive and the still beating heart of the vendor
It looks plausible that punch cards might be in use....
@ccdesan
That question doesn't avoid the potential response of, "We are unable to answer that query"; which funnily enough could be used to answer any question.... of course I think the real reason is the test data is faked and as such they are unable to supply the fake data that shows their laziness!
