Comments on: I hate my new printer! http://www.wickedblog.com/2009/01/19/i-hate-my-new-printer/ A Kentucky writer's musings...while actively pursuing the perfect balance between cutting-edge mobile technology and ecologically-sound voluntary simplicity Sun, 15 Jan 2012 16:52:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Angela Parker http://www.wickedblog.com/2009/01/19/i-hate-my-new-printer/#comment-1300 Angela Parker Tue, 20 Jan 2009 19:48:14 +0000 http://www.wickedblog.com/?p=1795#comment-1300 Yeah, in my quest to find what is "enough" without stepping over into the realm of what is "too much" -- I discover more and more of this kind of thing. The hardest part for me? Realizing that just because it's the latest and greatest technology doesn't (by that fact alone) mean I need it. *Holds head in shame* It's a rough addiction to overcome. :) Yeah, in my quest to find what is “enough” without stepping over into the realm of what is “too much” — I discover more and more of this kind of thing.

The hardest part for me? Realizing that just because it’s the latest and greatest technology doesn’t (by that fact alone) mean I need it.

*Holds head in shame* It’s a rough addiction to overcome. :)

We get up sold on features that we really do not need, desire, and a lot of cases, never use. I don't the number of laptops I see that are ramped up technology over filled boats that weigh in closer to 10 lbs, have features out the yin-yang, and only end be used to browse the web, a little word processing, and once a blue moon a spread-sheet. After all, who really needs WAN cell based modems, 7200 RPM drives, Core-Duo based lightning fast chips, along with blue tooth in a laptop? Okay, okay... I did just order one, but then again I am the IT guy and will actually used all that.

Hit the print button, turn around and the output is waiting on you. Great printer for $99.
