Digital TradeIn '96 Program HIGHLIGHTS o Provides users with more upgrade choices and flexibility o Based on trade-in values for installed equipment, not fixed "from/to" paths and part numbers o Replaces ADVANTAGE-UPGRADE program on a worldwide basis o Trade-in values for competitive equipment, as well as Digital systems, will be established DESCRIPTION In response to user and business partner feedback, Digital is replacing its ADVANTAGE-UPGRADE program with a set of worldwide, consistent business practices called TradeIn '96. TradeIn '96 is currently in effect in Europe, and will be effective in the Americas and Asia/Pacific on January 1, 1996. The old, fixed set of "from/to" paths and part numbers is being replaced by a table of trade-in values for currently installed equipment. By eliminating the fixed "from/to" paths and part numbers, users can upgrade their currently installed system to any system that meets their exact needs and requirements. This process allows users to configure the proper amount of memory, disk, and other options that they need. Users can now also upgrade workstations to servers and servers to workstations, whichever fits their computing requirements. Users will receive the trade-in value for their used equipment, which will be applied toward the purchase of a new VAX or Alpha configuration that meets their specific needs. Some restrictions apply. To provide for a smooth migration, users will be able to keep their currently installed system for up to 60 days. If the system is not returned after this time period, a non-return charge will be assessed. AVAILABILITY AND ORDERING With the implementation of the TradeIn '96 business practices, all current ADVANTAGE-UPGRADE part numbers, with the exception of in-cabinet upgrades, will be retired (see the Product and Service Retirements in this issue of Customer Update). TradeIn '96 will be applicable worldwide. Contact a Digital sales representative or authorized Digital reseller for additional ordering details.
