Yes, Mauro has already pointed this out.  As I replied to him, we do
have a separate series of platforms that do not have built-in RAS, and
report all errors. ÂSuch customers can simply choose them.  They do not
need to pay for built-in RAS.

The model w/ built-in RAS provides warranty & full support.  As I said,
it's a different model.
