Upon reading the current cisco hardware documentation, you might
assume that there is a one year warranty on hardware AND software;
after all it does say:

  "All cisco Systems routers and terminal servers shipped after
  March 1989, are covered by a one-year limited factory warranty.
  This warranty covers any defects in the hardware, software, or
  firmware.  The customer is also entitled to any software up-
  dates announced by cisco Systems during the warranty period."

I have been informed by cisco Systems that the above is a "typo," and
that software is only covered for 90 days.
