Thank you for these phone numbers. I called Zeiss service and spoke to
a very pleasant person, Cynthia, who was aware of the change in status
of BioRad customers. She wrote down all the service contract details,
will verify the information and arrange for field support, even to
Canada.
Of course, I am not sure how long the wait will be, but at least there
is a semblance of the existence of a plan of action. I will communicate
further details as they happen.

Subject: [Bio-Rad] confocal service
The argon 488 laser on our BioRad Radiance died yesterday and I called
the service department - the reply was that as of yesterday, Zeiss had
acquired their confocal division and Bio-Rad is no longer servicing
the
confocal microscope. Talk about poor timing!
Has anyone heard similar stories? Any difference in response policy
between Canada and the US?
Thanks
Judy
