Got an OUT OF FOCUS 8513 VGA monitor from IBM?

Is its serial number in the range 72-0000000 to 72-0640000  ??

If so, then you are eligible for a FREE Replacement/Repair from IBM !!

Per IBM ECA-017, (extension dated 11/19/90), you can contact IBM and get your 
failing unit replaced.  There is some question as to how 'fuzzy' is fuzzy,
but it looks as if you can get your failing 8513, in the range above, replaced 
for free.

Call your local IBM Dealer or IBM directly at 800-426-7378 for more details.
If they don't know what you're talking about, have them get hold of the local
IBM marketing rep., and ask them to look up the extension to ECA-017, of the 
IBM 8513/85XX series of ECAs dated 11/19/90.

Proof of purchase may be required.  Hurry as this is an extension and the 
offer will probably evaporate soon...

Hope this helps someone with a dying 8513...

later
