The IBM Warranty for Machines
IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM's Official Published Specifications. The
warranty period for a Machine is a specified, fixed period commencing on its Date of Installation. The date on your sales receipt is the Date of
Installation, unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise.
During the warranty period IBM or your reseller, if approved by IBM to provide warranty service, will provide repair and exchange service for the
Machine, without charge, under the type of service designated for the Machine and will manage and install engineering changes that apply to the
Machine.
If a Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, and IBM or your reseller are unable to either 1) make it do so or 2) replace it
with one that is at least functionally equivalent, you may return it to your place of purchase and your money will be refunded. The replacement may
not be new, but will be in good working order.
