Hello, it has been mentioned in SunSpots that 3/50's are not worth putting on a service contract because the cost of doing this is more than the average cost of repairing a 3/50 times the breakdown rate. That was very helpful, we have since taken our 3/50's off of our service contract with Sun. I was wondering if the same logic applies to 3/60's. Does anyone have a good idea of whether or not a 3/60's average repair costs outweigh the service contract costs? Thank you very much. -Alan .------------------------------------. | Alan Edwards: rush@xanadu.llnl.gov | | or: rush%xanadu@lll-crg.llnl.gov | `------------------------------------'
