    You could just ask any landlord what they would do if faced with you as an applicant.

    Seems like you need to try to tell one of them exactly what you’re telling us.

    [walter biscardi] “Wonder why they limited you? “

    When we bought our HDCAM gear in 2002, our Hartford Agent said it was over their $125k limit so we bought an equipment policy elsewhere. Maybe things are different in Georgia. The Hartford was competitive on price for our liability and we need more of a reason to switch than a couple hundred bucks. If we switched every time we were offered a lower price, I would spend all of my time with insurance agents. Most of them have rather drab personalities and talking to them puts me to sleep. And besides, I’m never actually happy to see them unless I’ve had some sort of problem. Kind of like the cops.

    First of all, there is no “answer” that fits everyone. I open and work on anything. This scares the crap out of people around me. Many others have no desire to hold a screwdriver in their hand.

    My own experience:

    I have a fantastic editor who is brilliant at what he does, but, if we need to add more ram, I have to do it. He could probably do it but I hired him to edit, not fix or upgrade electronic devices. A former editor spent too much time tinkering and it cost me plenty.

    I used to sell Discreet Edit and spent a lot of time building systems. My clients, however, were not at all interested in opening the box for any reason. If it stopped working, I did a service call.

    You can buy a computer from Apple and they will send it with all of the software installed, ready to run but don’t ask them how to digitize footage or how to put Jay Leno’s head on a female body builder.

    Some of us are techies an some are artists.

    Ditto what Bruce said. We have our basic policy with The Hartford and our huge equipment policy through someone else. The Hartford limit is $125k. It’s a photographer’s policy. Had it since 1990.

    [Ron Lindeboom] “you will find an “Edit Your Post” link “

    Comes in very handy for those times that you accidently say horrible or stupid things. I use it all the time.
