So... Xerox is in the pits right now. Their stock is at about $9.00, from
$30.00 or so earlier this year. they're cutting $1 billion (i think) in costs...
Are they going to pull out of FIRST at least for the time being?
PARC, the division that sponsors my old team is going to be sold off
partially, so that someone can bring all of their innovations to market.
if you don't know, PARC invented the mouse, the GUI, ether-net,
laser printing, WYSIWYG, and on and on.
anyways, anyone have any idea what'll happen with xerox and FIRST?
