>I only care about a name behind a GB and I don't care who the person works with.

But that's unfair. Like I said, you may be blaming someone for something that has literally nothing to do with them. Seems to me like you just want someone to blame, and don't really care who. Seriously now, how can you blame a designer if a manu's lead times slip after the designer and lead vendor have done everything correctly? Conversely, how can you blame a manu, if the designer is an idiot and did all his renders using hex codes?

I am getting the impression that despite you saying you have been around a while, you don't actually know much about running a GB. Am I correct in this assumption?
