IBM Canada considers it a disposable product. I have called a few places here in Toronto, Ontario but no one seems to work on them. I am wondering if it is hopeless and should give up. Boy, my New England upbringing is showing! That really makes me gag. I am sure you can find some 3rd party service outfits that will repair IBM cards. I don't know of any myself but you should be able to find some in the ads at the back of PC Week and some of the other mags. Byte is one I would try too. Try calling some of your distributors and perhaps they have some knowlege of good service people. -Alan Marshall, VP Proteon Inc. 2 Technology Drive CCMAIL: acm at proteonwebo Westboro, MA 01581-5008 ARPANET: acm@Proteon.com tel: (508)898-2120 MHS: acm @ ProteonW
