Thanks all. I'll be checking this out after my 4-day fishing trip to Canada
this weekend.

Jeff,

We've changed our BP a couple times. Never any complaints or
problems--except that you get a new customer number with each BP. That
can be confusing when opening a PMR, but nothing that can't be overcome.

IBM BP of record

All,

I was contemplating changing IBM BP when renewing HW maintenance and

SWMA.

The BP I'm thinking of going _to_ tells me I can't do that because IBM
won't allow it. I was told the only way to change BP is to buy new
hardware. As long as I have my current HW, I _must_ renew through the

BP I

purchased it from.

Is this true?
