I understand how you feel Joe, but don't knock all the Computer Dealers.
I used to work to work for Computerware before it folded, and I never
pulled that sh*t. If someone came in, "asking the famous I just bought
an imac and I can't connect my laser printer to it", I would pull the
Asante Localtalk adapter out and save the day. But in the case of an
old inkjet printer it made no sense to buy an adapter. I would just tell
the customer to buy a cheap new $80 inkjet printer.
Regards,
Aaron
