Joan, Xerox seems to be going the route of FMO. Lots of debt and some credibility problems. It is hard for me to believe that it is happening to a company like this, but the banks look like they are willing to pull the plug on them. So much for being a terrific client for 40 years. That and a hundred dollar bill gets you a cup of coffee at Starbucks (another problem co.). <g>

This is one I might pick up in my "hold your nose and buy" part of my cap app portfolio. I have to do more study to see if I can find a future there. I hated it when it was flying high, but it is hard to think of a co. that has become a verb (nobody says "Canon this report") disappearing totally. But I don't know enough yet.
