The last time I visited my local Costco I took a look at their printing section - <br /><br />(I guess Costco hasn't heard about the end of print either.)<br /><br />So I asked what large format printer they have behind the counter.(I assume they figured out that their small business customers would like posters.<br /><br />Much to my surprise it was an Epson. Not HP. <br />hmmmmmm.Michael Jnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3494073750236045538.post-34833967095790895572010-01-20T08:24:18.892-05:002010-01-20T08:24:18.892-05:00I'll take a look right after ..just to add: ap...I'll take a look right after ..just to add: apocalypses are a marvelous way to cut through the bs and clear the brain.Michael Jnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3494073750236045538.post-18617052109782135022010-01-20T08:06:22.721-05:002010-01-20T08:06:22.721-05:00I love a good financial apocalypse.
