Hey mike, when i was putting back my review set U1273A together without applying excessive force one of the screw heads snapped. Seriously
You think Agilent might take it back?
T4P, when you state it is a "review set" does this mean you received it for free?? If you give me the serial number I can check on the warranty status, or you can enter into the Agilent.com site. In the past, worked with another customer who received a free demo unit (think it was for Element14 testing) and there was a service issue; we verified that the unit comes with full warranty and we replaced for no cost.
Noticed you're from Singapore. I spent 4.5 wonderful years in Singapore, just returned to US in Dec 2011. We'd move back if Agilent would pay for the move again... I'm especially missing my S$3 Indian lunches, ice kachang and jumping in the pool almost every day of the year.
Mike
Yeah, i recieved it for a review. MY52380014 is the SN i think. Busy on OCN these days
I read the agilent TOS and it said "user damage" ... i don't really think it was my fault though ... the head just snapped
Dec 2011, hmm. Just about 5months in when i stepped into electronics
$3 lunches? No more man
Now my lunches even as a student starts from 3$ ...
Even keeping a single actual panel as well is doable, as you just keep the last one out, and then slip it in an envelope with the details ( panel without the value added things like switches, displays and such are not too expensive) and file it. It then allows you to check later if needed, and you just can either make up as a unit later if desperate or just put it through a shredder when you eol the product range and no longer do any support or cal of it. On a batch of 10 000 panels it will be cheaper than the hard drive and server space.
I don't know man. Surely as Agilent you will definitely have some spare servers lying around with storage space in them. This is 2013 ... c'mon ...
Even i use a Xeon as my daily rig ... Scratch it ... he's got a 3930k at half discount, lol.
