Guess no Lasers beat my inkjets
- comparable print quality
- first page out quicker
- *fraction* of power use - I can run then on my UPS during power outages, can 
you?
- ink is the *only* consumable apart from occasional new ink cartridges when 
they have been refilled too often - I am never caught out without expensive 
hard-to-get consumables in the time of need
- nice colours when I need them (e.g.photos)
- much simpler mechanism = enhanced reliability and much easier to fix if ever 
a problem
- smaller = less desktop real estate wasted
- no Ozone production
- fraction of the cost per page (less than $1 in ink / ream of 500 papers for 
standard letters)

just don't buy any cheap toy inkjets - the initial price is comparable to 
equivalent Lasers, it's the running costs that are so much cheaper with 
inkjets
