  Absolutely.  The Good ones frequently even have a spare interposer and
terminator in their possestion just in case.  I am an IBM BP and have
taken to driving a pickup because of all the stuff like that which is in
the back! (I've had the local CEs-also Really good-track me down because
they needed some of what's back there.)
