February 27, 2006
Overview
The IBM ServerProven(r) rebate offering has been modified retroactive to February 14, 2006.
The offer:
You can receive a rebate if you acquire a qualifying new ServerProven Solution that includes:
* an eligible new IBM System i5(tm) or IBM eServer xSeries(r) server; or an eligible model conversion or processor upgrade to an installed IBM eServer iSeries(tm) or System i5 server; and
