Re: [CGUYS] generic laser printer cartridges?

Merely using an ink or toner not made by the manufacturer of the printer will not void any warranty. However, if said cartridge, toner or ink, were to leak and damage the printer because of a defect in that cartridge, it could well be that free repair or replacement of the printer, if it is still under warranty, could be in jeopardy.

Either with a subscription plan (which you have at 5.95/mo) or Skype credit, you can get a local phone number for free. The number they provide is a US number so I can access Skype from a US phone without being at a computer. That's good. For I moment I was getting excited that I could get a number in a foreign country so people could call us cheaply. That is available in a handful of countries, but not Italy. Digging around some more I also discovered that the flat rate plan only applies to calls to landline phones, can't call cell phones. That's an unhappy restriction because so many Europeans have given up on landline phones. They take all their call on cell. * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *

It would be interesting to see what other users think of it. I activated two accounts just in the last week or so but have not used them. I know half a dozen people who use google voice and have not had any problems with it. I don't doubt his problems, I don't think google voice is ready for primetime but I wouldn't discount it too much.
