	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." (page 140)
