Abstract: We prove that no ultraproduct of Banach spaces via a countably incomplete ultrafilter can contain c0 complemented. This shows that a "result" widely used in the theory of ultraproducts is wrong. We then amend a number of results whose proofs had been infected by that statement. In particular we provide proofs for the following statements: (i) All M-spaces, in particular all C(K)-spaces, have ultrapowers isomorphic to ultrapowers of c0, as well as all their complemented subspaces isomorphic to their square. (ii) No ultrapower of the Gurariu i space can be complemented in any M-space. (iii) There exist Banach spaces not complemented in any C(K)-space having ultrapowers isomorphic to a C(K)-space.
