box pushers; screwdriver guys Explanation: Boxenschieber may actually be a direct translation of _box pusher/s_ for firms providing only hardware (in boxes) and at best rather basic hardware services, not total solutions. If you prefer, _screwdriver guys_ sometimes appears as a synonym AltaVista (Endlish) ["box pusher", "box pushers"]138 pages found; word count: box pusher: 124 box pushers: 363 -- e.g., http://www.morebusiness.com/templates_worksheets/bplans/amt2... http://www.sba.gov/classroom/bplan914.html http://www.enteleky.com/markplan.html http://gouldcomputer.com/pcarch.htm Incidentally, some dictionaries translate (German) Box into (English) loudpeaker or terminal, but neither of these is particularly applicable here.
