d> IBM claims so :)  they swapped it.

The other month I had dell out at my datacenter replacing a bad
motherboard.  Conveniently enough, the replacement had *exactly* the
same error in it when we ran diagnostics on it.  4 hours later, and
yet another MB, it worked.

Don't assume it is good unless your diags tell you so.  Even then,
don't assume it unless you observe no errors.
