Another update on this problem. I spoke to Bryan with Cisco a few minutes
ago. No good news to be had.

Cisco can't find any working ones to send to customers like me. Furthermore,
they have no way to tell which will work and which won't short of opening
the box and installing it. A bunch of them have been sent back to China to
the design engineers to determine what went wrong in manufacture. He did
say he was authorized to refund my money irrespective of where I bought it.
That was unnecessary as CDW already refunded my money and said keep it.
I feel a bit for this Bryan. He is obviously taking the brunt of this and
is terribly frustrated. Doesn't help me though.

An update on this.

I talked to Bryan at Cisco a few minutes ago. He's having a devil of
a time coming up with units that don't fail. He thinks the problem
might be more extensive than first thought. He's been trying to
contact the engineering group in (drum roll here) China. They think
one of the electronic component parts is the problem.

It could be a couple of weeks before he gets me a replacement.

Jeff -

Dell Precision Workstation support /is/ Gold Support, it comes from the
same
group.
Last month's problem was the first I have ever encountered when dealing
with
this group.

I Just hope that you never get Dung when you call... ;-D

That's the experience (excellent) I've had with Dell Gold Support.

Remind me to never buy Dell. Everytime i had to open a support call
with Lenovo, it never took more than 10 minutes. Lenovo support is
located in Germany, and i have no issue with that. Our laptops and
desktops are covered by on-site warranty, so i usually have someone
on-site within one or two business days. For most smaller stuff, i
just ask them to send me the parts, as that's easier (e.G. swapping a
keyboard).
