Quick Word/Excel question for the hivemind. I have a Word document with a table in it, and I want to open the table in Excel. I'm sure it's something simple, I just have no idea what to do.

ETA: never mind, cutting and pasting works just fine. I'm such a maroon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Have you tried copying the table and pasting into Excel?

Yeah, just before. Still slapping my head.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

When we sold parallel port printers, we never sold them with cables either. I've just assumed printers still came cable-free.

Huh. I think my last printer (parallel port) did come with a cable, but it was over 4 years ago, so perhaps not.

Have you thought about a print server, Jessica?

Ooh, that's an idea. I'll think about it.

Thanks for the link to the Canon site, Jon.

What's the "HP" iPod. Is it different from the regular Apple iPod?

Hey. New board.

I think it's blue. Or something. So, a bit uglier, but otherwise the same thing. I think. Maybe.

t /completely unhelpful

ETA: Hmm. The iPods on the HP webpage don't look blue. Maybe that part fell through, and their just the same thing.

Nah, it's not blue.

Ha! X-edit/correction

Hey. New board.

Apparently, the only real difference (besides the HP logo on the back) is that Applecare is unavailable for the HP one.
