IBM AS/400(?) in Denver, CO - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

11 Jul 2001

	I've got 2, 1 rode 200 miles in the back of my pickup and the other, I had
shipped from LA to Baton Rouge by United Van Lines.  No problems waking
either one up, so I'm not too convinced of the "switch"

The existence of the switch was in some of the manuals (the relevant
manual I seem to have chucked).  I do recall that all that was required
was to call IBM for a new license, there did not seem to be anything to be
physically replaced.

   Are these
the machines that contain a vibration switch so they can tell
 if they've been moved? and if so, the license becomes invalid? 
Jerome Fine replies:
What ever the IBM systems were that contained that feature, did
that mean that the original legal user could also not move his system
into another room? 

 Of course not, legit owners had IBM field service move the hardware and
 field service replaced the vibration switch after it was moved.
