Aha! I think I found it: 495 Rapids == 30 days of RapidPro.

Their pricing explanations used to be worse, believe it or not.

I don't believe it.

Jon,

is this something you will need to do for years? a year?

That's astounding.

le nube, I probably don't want to commit to more than 6 months to a year.

Thanks for those links, by the way. I'm going to play around with the free version of dropsend.com. If that doesn't meet my needs, both they and transferbigfiles.com have $5/month options that may suffice.

It looks like the free version of megaupload takes about 2 hours to upload one of the typical files I'll be receiving, so that's the benchmark I'm testing against.

Any suggestions on a laser printer that works well with Macs.

I have a brother HL2040 [link]

It's USB, it's plugged into the USB jack on the Airport Extreme wi-fi router. I can print from my iMac, from my Win7 laptop, and work MacBook Pro with no problem at all. I don't do a lot of printing. But it works great for me. I got an older version of this for old job, and it was about 2 years before I had to replace the ink cartridge. Again, not a ton of printing, but a heck of a lot more than I do at home.

I print a whole lot, at least by home standard - whole books for editing, some brochures and pamphlets for political groups I belong to. I'd say at least medium by home office standards.

My Hp 1320 has worked like a champ. They want to sell me expensive cartridges, but I get no name ones through Amazon for $35 that last at least 5,000 pages. That is around 7/10ths of a page for toner. I'm on windows, but assume HP works with Macs. Again B&W and only makes sense if your volume is high enough if your volume is high enough that a low per page price is worth a higher up-front cost. (Though the 1320 is not that much more expensive than comparable brothers. Also the duplex printing (ability to print on both sides) can be very convenient. Maybe these days that is universal, but when I bought it a lot in the same price range lacked duplex printing
