Okay, I don't usually post deals here, but anyone looking for a dirt-cheap laser printer, HP has one for $19.99 today, plus $5 shipping. Coupon code SV2130 may bring the price down to $9.99. Decent reviews too.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
That's the one I have. On the plus side, it has worked well, and has a pretty small footprint. On the negative side, it does not come with a USB cable. I paid $144 for printer, cable, and tax back in October.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Thanks for the battery advice, Tom.
I saw my first Kindle up close and personal yesterday - my neighbor got one and let me play with it a bit. And honestly? Playing with it has totally removed any desire I may have had to get one of my own. Which is not usually the case with gadgets, so huh.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Playing with my friend's kindle made me want it. But it may be that I wanted to read her books.

They canceled my printer order. Bastards.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Just saw an ad in the free section on Craigslist giving away old computers:
a couple printers, a zip drive, bunch of ascii cords
Ascii cords?
Is that like sending a tenderfoot to find a Left-Handed smoke shifter or 50 feet of shoreline?
