Karl,

As an iSeries owner, I was glad to read your note. The only problem is I
cannot download the pdf file and the document number to fax back was
invalid. If you have the pdf file, I would really appreciate it if you
could send it to me.

Thanks,
Chuck

| I suspect that is just a rumour. Otherwise, IBM is flirting with a
| massive class-action lawsuit. I just checked the "IBM Servicepac for
| Warranty and Maintenance Options - Supported Products List" at their
| website and all of the i-series models (1410, 1411, 1412, 1450, 1451,
| 1452, 1472, and 1720) are listed as supported products for all of the
| following extended service packs:
|
| 2,3,or 4 year depot service
| 1,2,3, or 4 year 9x5 onsite service
|
| If you'd like to take a look at the document yourself, it can be
| downloaded from:
|
| http://www.as.ibm.com/asus/source/wamomxeu.pdf (note: requires acrobat
| reader to view).
|
| Or, you can get it from their fax-back service. Call 1-800-IBM-3395 and
| request document #11006.
|
| Best regards,
| KH
