IBM recently announced that its service centers would be servicing all
different brands of computers.  At the time I didn't understand why
anybody would take their Mac in to be fixed at IBM (except for
companies of course) but if they distribute the NeXT, this could be an
early indication.

Isn't it neat how rumors can start on absolutely no hard evidence
and much irresponsible speculation.  :-)
