“ProCurve’s lifetime warranty is a valuable advantage in containing the cost
of investment and network maintenance. It does not imply that the ProCurve
products are not reliable. On the contrary, the lifetime warranty is even more
valuable because it is offered by such a reputable vendor as HP ProCurve.”
