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.

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?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Ascii cords were used to transfer ASCII data from one computer to another. They were eventually replaced by hexadecimal cable and binary wire. Cutting edge computers use gigabit rope.

In order to stream video, ASCII cord needs to have gold-plated connectors. Otherwise, you get extended-character-set noise.
