I forgot to mention that the PWD contract had that stuff about non-sharing, too. But then again, everything is negotiable.
We had no need to resell resources.

Steve, About 3 years ago, when I worked at CIMS Lab, Inc. (now part of IBM as Tivoli UAM) and got a FLEX-ES through PWD, we were told explicitly what I mentioned, by both resellers. <snip> US Courts have held that what a sales person tells you and what the contract says means nothing. That is, the contract is above what the sales person says. And it was/is in the best interests of T3 and Cornerstone (or any of the other Tier 1s) to sell machines, so I can see them telling you this so they can make another sale. I'd read the contract for myself, and then, ask IBM's PWD persons what can be done in a case like this if the verbiage says no. After all, contracts are negotiable.
