Just got this from a friend who is a Sales Manager..."Things ARE a bit different here… Although we are and will be Hughes-Calihan, it is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Konica Minolta. They will be closing the direct KM branches in AZ and NV, and folding them into us in April. We no longer offer Lanier…

This is pretty big news. They are (were) a very big Lanier Dealership with 6 offices in AZ and two in NV.

Art, you may want to post this on the Konica Minolta Board.

likely a trend that will continue. Albin, another large KM owned "dealership" out of Detroit has just purchased a small and failing KM dealer in South Bend. As a KM dealership here it should be interesting to see what effect they will have in the marketplace. I love the KM line, especially the 60ppm and up b&w and the color. We also have Canon, so we shall see.
This was an old line dealership dating back several generations, family owned and operated. In addition to Lanier, they were an Oce dealership and were long established as a Network Services provider with expertise in ComputerNetwork inplementation and maintenance; it will be interesting to see if K-M continues to provide those offerings i=to its well-established customer base.
