Do not worry. This is just data not entered somewhere within IBM/Tivoli.
Look carefully - price for initial purchase, maintenance renewal and
after-license renewal are equal. And also same for IBM PA Levels A, B, C,
..., J !!
Same is here in Europe but more funny - 11795.68 EUR :-)) Can you guess in
this price that actually it is four digit placeholders filled with nines
and multiplied by EUR/USD rate. I am sure you cannot :-)
I've dropped a memo to IBM Passport Advantage Support and hope to get
reply soon.
On new info you can hear from me again.
