UPS will service Toshiba Laptops

UPS enters deal to do repair on Toshiba laptops
Good idea, I'm sure this could work very well. COnsider it an extension of Just In Time manufacturing.

Mark Simons, general manager at Toshiba's digital products division said, "Moving a unit around and getting replacement parts consumes most of the time... The actual service only takes about an hour." As it turns out, UPS is no spring chicken in this area. They have been servicing some Lexmark printers since 1996, and have already been performing first level inspections of Toshiba laptops since 1999. Nevertheless, some naysayers argue that consumers won't like the idea of the boys in brown cracking open computers for repairs.
