That settles it, I'm quitting my graveyard shift job writing 
instructionmanuals for guided nuclear missiles
I hear that. I did that slammin' together, 2-day deadline, as an 
afterthought to million-$$$ projects once they had been completed, sometimes 
taking years: "The Operations Manual", two days. What a joke. Certifiably first 
grade primer. So, who reads them anyway? 
Yes I hear you just accepted the job of speech writer for George W. 
Bush. :-)
Hey, 'baby', the politically-incorrect code-word is George "$hrub". 
smilehehe, LOL 
At least I said "jet sixes" and not "jet sexes" instead of "jet 
sizes." :-)

a neurologist.. what nerve, eh?

probably wise to use a cleaning cart between switching from dye to

need to be flushed, which could be quite a 
job. Art, You didn't mean to say that if 
the ink chamber is small a flush would be a very long process did 
you? I just want to make sure I am interpretingwhat you said 
correctly and adding for any missing portions of words like the "n't" in 
"wouldn't." I was going to ask if the particles and viscosity of 
pigmented inks would make a difference in jet sixes; but you answered 
itby saying that they accounted for this via changing the 
pressure.Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Yes, 
it should have readthat the head's ink chamber on cartridge based printers 
is small, so itwouldn't take too long to flush.Then again, I'm 
guessing you mean "jet sizes" not jet sixes ;-)That settles it, I'm

filmscanners: Epson Bubblegum Trading

2001-05-10 Thread Tx




From: Jeffrey 
Goggin Subject: A Good Epson 
Customer Service Story
If you pay $300 for an item offering similar performance to items that cost 
farmore money, common sense suggests that compromises were made somewhere 
inthe design and/or manufacturing and marketing processes. To expect 
thesame degree of customer service from Bazooka regarding a 
non-performingpiece of bubble gum as from Epson regarding a $300 printer (or 
potentially,a $10,000 printer) is IMO, unrealistic.

EXCELLENT LOGIC, JEFF !!
You too Arthur, in your response. 
BTW, Arthur, I just got an IRS notice today in response to my 
gumballtrading last year on the market. RE your trade of KraftGum 
for Butterscotch Candies, can they taxyou for value added 
gains?Serious about the IRS drop in the box today, their profiling 
no doubt flagged me,somewhat more than a yawn-amount all the buys  
sells, but like you, bottomline I'm up for the Guinness Record of Losers over 
all. Give me a break, with the unusual marketas squirrelly as it's 
been,to survive who can help but walk in  out the door more often 
than thru the Safeway Grocery entrance? If not enough thrillsin 
losses, up to your A in Alligators (up to your C in Crocodiles for 
youforeign traders), Doesn't this make your day? 



filmscanners: The cutting-edge: Occam's Razor

2001-05-04 Thread Tx



Actually, Occam's Razor is a.k.a. KISS, the philosophical kiss being Keep 
It Simple Stupid. Also known as, first use what seems to be the simplest 
explanation and then perhaps the explanation-method will not grow more complex 
from there. but as they say in Internet parlance, smile, hehe,  
LOL. Usually KISS becomes Murphy's Law. And LOL in these cases usually 
becomes Lots Of Luck.

filmscanners: Buyer advice: Scanners Printers

Subject: re: filmscanners: Acer Scanwit 2720s vs 2740s vs 
HP s20

In response to the question about the Scanwit 2740 cost, it might be 
worthmentioning that there's been a guy on Ebay selling new ones for some 
time now. They seem to come in for under $500. He's also offering some 
2720s 
too.-

Group, 

I must have missed a few emails on this discussion; and I am new at this 
group, and particularly also regarding scanners. 

Bottomline across-the-board educated conclusions arehighly welcome on 
the following equipment: 

1. For home-small office use, roughly under $500 (400 UK?), considering all 
the compromises or not, the best of the 35mm scanners. 

2. The best of theinkjet printers, normal width is acceptable, wide 
carriage is less of a consideration (I think?). 

 Thanks
