Heheh - always happens like that doesn't it ;) I'd bookmark that Linux
Printing website if I were you. I've used it to recommend printers to
other people who needed something new that would work in Linux. It's also
good to see which manufacturers are supporting F/OSS - if they support the
community, I'll support them with my $$$. I even "borrowed" an "internet
enabled" lappy at Harvey Norman[1] to double check my Lexmark E232 before
buying it :P
Hope your friend has a lot of success in Linux - if not, there's a heap of
F/OSS available for Win32. Firefox+Thunderbird+OpenOffice = kick arse :)
Have fun,
James
[1] Apparently the lappy was supposed to password protected, but my linux
boot floppy soon made light work of their administrator password - heheh
