From: Bud Spurgeon <SPURGEON@SUMEX-AIM.ARPA> The following is from the June 16, 1983 issue of Electronics magazine- "If your personal computer goes on the fritz and you don't have a service contract, you may have a tough time finding anyone besides your local television or hi-fi repairman to take a crack at repairing the thing. But now Xerox Corp.,Stamford,Conn., has gone public with its nationwide service organization and plans to be repairing a wide gamut of computers and peripherals from manufacturers like Osborne and Epson. The company will repair units that are brought into either any of its 82 service centers or to a participating computer dealer. At last month's NCC in Anaheim, Xerox talked with over 100 manufacturers with which it hoped to start repair agreements."
