- I have recently received a new 486/33 from a computer company that we've
- done business with before. Someone pointed out to me that there is no FCC
- certification sticker on the back of the PC. The fellow who noticed this
- says that 1) it's against FCC regulations to sell computer systems without
- certification and 2) the seller is subject to hefty fines for doing this.
-
- What's the scoop on this? Does anyone have a phone number for the FCC
- handy where I can get more information on this?
-
- Thanks for any wisdom.
