 I bought an Epson Stylus Color 850 printer on the high street here in 
 the UK in about 2000/2001. (Great printer for QLs and PCs with an LPP. 
 Still works.) I now need to know approxiamtely what it cost me then but 
 Ive lost the original receipt. Any idea anyone?

Found one ad in Jun 2000 Computer Shopper (by Watford Electronics) for the 
850 at £148+vat ~= £175.

 Of course, the capacity decreases when you format the disc as well (how did 
 they work out the unformatted capacity, because, if it is unformatted then 
 you cannot store anything on it !)

I'd like the proper answer to that as well.  I guessed that unformatted 
capacity represents the total amount of data that can be stored on the disk. 
  Formatting added extra information (like an [un]allocated sector/cluster 
map, root directory, boot info and program, etc) that needs to be stored 
somewhere and so comes out of that unformatted capacity.
