If XRX is a takeover candidate, who would buy them? Why?
It looks like XRX doesn't have the products that people want, so what does an acquiring company get - where is the value? Is it patents, emerging tech, what?

Someone mentioned HP as a possible buyer. This would seem to fit with CEO Carly's new definition of Invent: "buy other companies'

Also reading that XRX has some $7b in credit, and they can make it "several months" without showing results. Doesn't sound too encouraging - results from what: cost cutting or innovation and sales?
