Look at the economics -- a printer is a one-time sale; you've collected the customer's money, and they've got their printer. Ink is a fungible; it gets used up, and you have to buy more. If a printer manufacturer can come up with a mechanism to ensure that the people who buy their printers have to buy their ink, they have a steady revenue stream.
Look at the relative costs. Printer prices have been going down almost as fast as memory prices. With some of the low-end ink-jet printers, once you buy more than one or two OEM ink cartridges, you've spent more on cartridges than you did on the printer. And over the printer's lifetime, looking at the OEM costs for some of these ink-jet cartridges, you're going to spend on ink several times what you spent on the printer. Think about what the automobile market would be like if you had to buy your oil, gasoline, tires, and every other consumable or replacement component for your car from the company that made your car. That's what the printer manufacturers want.
Several companies tried, back when the high-resolution ink-jet printers were first coming out, to achieve that kind of control over the other fungible supply for printers -- paper. They brought out special ink-jet paper 'specially designed for high-resolution printing' and ran ad campaigns suggesting that you would be producing sub-standard printouts if you used non-OEM paper. That lasted until the big paper manufacturers ramped up to produce the same products, and unlike ink cartridges, there was no way for the printer manufacturers to put in mechanisms to force consumers to use OEM paper.

********* sig: If you don't like the law, get filthy stinking rich, and buy a better one.
This is a fair and accurate rebuttle which provides evidence to the contrary concerning the existance of "Pluto":
.00012% in mass magnitude, compared to what is known as "The Planet Pluto." The assertion that a mysterious ball of ice exists by itself beyond a real gas planet [Neptune] with no subsequent balls of ice similar size-magnitude beyond this supposed "planet."
The occurrance of a false-scientific conspiracy is rare. What am I referring to, you ask? I refer to the existance (or, lack of) the "Planet Pluto." Supposedly "discovered" in 1930 by Astronomer Clyde Tombaugh by accident, was merely a clever story to claim credit for a "new planet" and scientific precedence. The pure and simple truth is the FACT that the planet Pluto does not exist. The reason for orbital disturbances beyond the planet Neptune are explained in a rather simple non-planetoid manner. Rather than a planet-sized mass made mostly of frozen water, methane and carbon-oxygen compounds, a more plausable suggestion is a mobile gravity well or dark matter pocket of comperable space-distortion magnitude. Contrary to popular belief and physical evidence, the Oort cloud does not possess any other masses similar in magnitude to "Pluto." In fact, the second largest Oort fragment is all but
As far as optical "evidence" is concerned, Oort fragments aligning in a per-chance optical arrangement distorts sunlight in a manner that appears planetoid, but is really rather faint to be considered a "planet." Reconsider your universe: Pluto does not exist.

Dutch Politician Fortuyn Is Shot Dead
Filed at 3:20 p.m. ET
HILVERSUM, Netherlands (AP) -- Right-wing Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn was shot six times and killed Monday as he left a radio interview.
Dutch television said the 54-year-old politician was shot in the head, neck and chest. The attack came nine days before national elections, and opinion polls had predicted Fortuyn would lead one of the largest parties in parliament.
Prime Minister Wim Kok confirmed Fortuyn's death.
``After this assassination, Pim Fortuyn is gone,'' Kok said in The Hague after breaking off a campaign engagement in the western city of Haarlem. ``This is a deep tragedy. I am shocked. This is a deep tragedy for those close to him, for his loved ones and for our country and our democracy.''
It was the first time in modern history that a Dutch political leader was assassinated. ``These are things you thought were just not possible in the Netherlands,'' said Ad Melkert, new leader of the ruling Labor Party and its candidate for prime minister. ``It's a low-point for our democracy.''
He called Islam a ``backward'' culture and laid claim to leadership of the Netherlands' perennially vacant political right.
``I saw Pim Fortuyn lying on the ground with a bullet wound in his head,'' said television reporter Dave Abspoel.
Fortuyn's platform seemed out of place in the Netherlands, which has a reputation for liberalism. It was the first country to legalize gay marriages, regulate prostitution, approve and control euthanasia, and tolerate the over-the-counter sale of marijuana in hundreds of ``coffee shops.''
Though tolerant of such subcultures, Fortuyn's popularity has exposed a deep vein of suspicion of immigrants in Europe's most densely populated country, about 2 million of whose 16 million people are not native Dutch. About 800,000 are Muslims, predominantly Moroccans and Turks.
In the Netherlands, most political leaders travel without bodyguards, often using public transportation. The only exceptions were Kok, as head of government. Fortuyn, however, had his own bodyguards and his party headquarters in Rotterdam were always guarded.
Police cordoned off Fortuyn's house in Rotterdam, where he often met supporters and gave interviews. Followers lay bouquets outside the house.
Fortuyn had recently expressed fears for his safety. A few weeks ago, Islamic protesters threw cream pies laced with urine in his face.

TODO: Something witty here...
...strike me as a bit, hmmm, useless. Unless, of course, it's for something necessary, like piping cooling water (or liquid N) for cooling. Sure, some of the blinking/neon lights are kinda cool to impress the friends and all, but my techno friends are generally more impressed by cool hardware/software implementations (real hacking) and generally consider the other trappings to be a bit frilly. The most impressive 'case mod' I've ever done was to actually install all the panels and properly close up the case on my wife's computer so it looked presentable. My own computers, on the other hand... hell, I can't even find the side panels, musta thrown'm out. I've got too much external hardware, ribbon cables, protoboards, etc, dandling out of most of them that I couldn't possibly even button up the case, let alone fancy it up with super-cool visual effects. oh, well, too each their own.
All things in moderation.

Netcraft has confirmed: Taco-snotting is dying.
Yet another crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered Taco-snotting community when recently IDC confirmed that Taco-snotting accounts for less than a fraction of 1 percent of all homosexual acts. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft survey which plainly states that Taco-snotting has lost more fag practitioners, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Taco-snotting faggots are collapsing in complete disarray, as further exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Faggot World comprehensive snotting test.
You don't need to be a Katz to predict Taco-snotting's future. The handwriting is on the wall: Taco-snotting faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Taco-snotting because Taco-snotting is dying. Things are looking very bad for Taco-snotting. As many of us are already aware, Taco-snotting continues to lose faggotshare. White ink flows like a river of bubbly, thick jizz. The circle-snot is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core snotters.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
Circle-snotting leader Jeff "Homos" Masterbates states that there are 7000 snotters of the circle-snot. How many users of anal snot are there? Let's see. The number of circle-snotting versus anal snot posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 anal snot users. SnotOS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of anal snot posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of SnotOS. A recent article put the circle-snot at about 80 percent of the Taco-snotting market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 circle-snot users. This is consistent with the number of circle-snot Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of CowboiKneel's walnuts, abysmal sales and so on, the circle-snot went out of business and was taken over by SNOTi who sell another troubled Taco-snot. Now SNOTi is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another gay whorehouse.
All major surveys show that Taco-snotting has steadily declined in faggotshare. Taco-snotting is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If Taco-snotting is to survive at all it will be among heterosexual hobbyist dabblers. Taco-snotting continues to decay. Nothing short of a jizz-soaked miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, Taco-snotting is dead.
Fact: Taco-snotting is dead.
I managed to get the first 3 pages up before it conked out.
Basically it's a mostly standard case mod, but he took a piece of plexiglas and melted it either over something or by cutting a hole in something and letting it sag down through it while warm. (Hadn't gotten to his description, just the pictures.)
A neat idea, but nothing totally amazing.
That said, I very well may take this new concept into consideration when I attempt my first real mod this summer. Try it again later when it's less slashdotted if you're into case mods.
Otherwise, just suffice it to say that he made a little dome out of plexiglas.

Star Trek: Voyager is dying.
Yet another crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered *Voyager community when last month Nielsen confirmed that *Voyager accounts for less than a fraction of 1 percent of all viewers. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft survey which plainly states that *Voyager has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict *Voyager future. The hand writing is on the wall: *Voyager faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for *Voyager because *Voyager is dying. Things are looking very bad for *Voyager. As many of us are already aware, *Voyager continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood. Tuvok is the most endangered of them all.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
Star Trek: Voyager producer Rick Berman states that there are 7000 viewers of *Voyager. How many fans of Tuvok are there? Let's see. The number of *Voyager versus Chakotay-specific posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 Tuvok fans. Tuvok posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of Chakotay-specific posts. Therefore there are about 700 Tuvok fans. A recent article put Seven of Nine at about 80 percent of the *Voyager fanbase. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 Seven of Nine fans. This is consistent with the number of Seven of Nine Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Paramount, abysmal ratings and so on, Star Trek: Voyager was ended as a series and the syndication rights were sold to another troubled company. Now that company is also dead, its corpse turned over to another charnel house.
All major surveys show that *Voyager has steadily declined in the ratings. *Voyager is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If *Voyager is to survive at all it will be among hardcore Star Trek nerd fucks who are hoping to see Seven of Nine in a bikini. *Voyager continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, *Voyager is dead.
Fact: Star Trek: Voyager is dead.
Case mods can get a little immature. I am all for being able to put the most air through my computer, and OC it alot, but really- isn't it just easier sometimes to just buy something a little faster? No that isn't the creative way, but the lights and all just get to me after a while. At first they are cool, but then I think that you should really be working on keeping you box(es) running fast in the first place. Think about expandabilty and useablity of lights and stickers. Now some case mods (like switchable fans) are acutally useable.
./ers in general think about case mods.. Do you have any? Are for for/against them? Think they are a waste of time? Good use of creativty?

Does anybody know where you might find those case LEDs (the ones with the pair of wires and the motherboard connector) for sale without having to buy the whole case (or a lot of 10,000)? I looked forever for those (I have a case with a few ATA cards in it and I wanted to connect up the LEDs to so I can see which chains are busy and what card is causing the occasional problems).
You'd think those LEDs would be everywhere, but so far all the ones I've managed to find have been scrounged from old cases. Even Radio Shack doesn't carry them (and I even looked through the catalog).
I read the internet for the articles.
HELLO,
I am posting this from my specially modded 486DX 33MHZ computer running Linux. Basically what I did was hollow out a goat carcass and put all of components inside its belly. I insert my dongle in it's anus and I put CDs in it's mouth. The left hoof has a track ball in it and I set my monitor on it's horns.

It is amazing how much /.ers can say without even having read the article...
Its a goatse! Mod this troll DOWN!

so it can withstand the power of the /. effect.
I think he needs a beowulf cluster of these bubble mods and maybe his site wont get slashdotted so quick.
Its a goatse link! Moderate this troll down!
Have you ever considered just buying regular LED's and just hacking some sort of connector onto the cards? LED, some speaker wire, and maybe some aluminum foil & duct tape should work nicely.
The US Patent Office has granted Matt's a patent covering "Method and apparatus for sprucing up the front of your case a bit, when those lighted case badges don't seem like enough"
The link has posted above has nothing to do with the story posted above.
I have a B&W G3. When I want to add something, I pull the ring and swing the side down. Everything is open and easy to access. 2 seconds. A child could do it. And my G3 is over 3 years old.
I have yet to see a PC case out there that approaches the ease of access that Apple had 3 years ago. Am I just not up the market? I know that alot of manufacturers were adding colorful plastic sections to their cases. I've seen the neon additions and clear windows from the modders. Why hasn't even one manufacturer tried to make the case an easy thing to work with?
Thank you for not wasting bandwidth by equipping this smiley with a nose. FYI, a web page should be up within the next few days for the Denoser script, that automates the process of denosing smileys.
This little perl script has already been making the rounds in the hacker community, and there is a lot of excitement about it. Be sure to keep an eye on the Denoser project page, as activity is going to really pick up once the word gets out.
Karma: Good (despite my invention of the Karma: sig)
WTF don't we see some cases that go for function mods, rather than these ugly image mods? Something as nicely built as Apple's G4 towers, or as quiet and small as the cube of theirs. Most computers totally suck when it comes to easy of putting it together and taking it apart. Look at an SGI O2 as a hugely high standard when it comes to case design. You can take the thing apart and put it back together in under a minute.
Of course most of these are beyond the ability of a typical case modder, who is just out to make their ugly PC even uglier.
Oh well, a geek can dream, right?
I happened to be bored, so I grabbed all 6 pages and posted them here:

"But a biohazard sign is very universal, not so unique... I'd want something to represent me... so I found a piece of art made by snecx (http://excadark.dfected.net/ - great artist). With his permission I was permitted to use this image..."

No one would ever use only a quarter cup of teaspoon cloves in an apples sauce pork chop recipe. How gullible do you think we are?
3 c All-purpose flour 1 ts Baking powder 1/2 ts Salt 3/4 c Margarine 1 1/2 c Sugar 2 Large eggs 1 tb Lemon peel; grated ---- filling --- 6 oz Dates; pitted 1/2 c Dried apricots; 6 ozs 1/2 c Apricot nectar 1/2 c Sugar 1/4 c Lemon juice 1 ts Lemon peel; grated 1/2 c Nuts; chopped 1. Sift flour with baking powder and salt. Set aside. 2. In large bowl, beat sugar, margarine, eggs, and lemon peel with electric mixer set on low to medium. Beat until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in flour mixture until well combined and smooth. Form a ball of the dough and wrap tightly. Refrigerate a few hours or overnight. 3. Make filling before continuing with cookie dough. In small saucepan combine chopped, dried apricots, apricot nectar, sugar and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, turn to simmer, and cook, covered, for 15 minutes. Add chopped dates and cook 5 minutes longer, stirring often, watching carefully to see that the fruit doesn't dry out and stick. Mixture should be thick. Remove from heat and add the lemon peel, juice and chopped nuts. Use your choice of nuts; walnuts or pecans are good choices. Mix well and cool completely. 4. Divide dough into 4 parts and work with one part at a time, keeping rest refrigerated until ready to use. On lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 10 x 12 inch rectangle. Use a sharp knife dipped in flour to cut dough into 12 rectangles. Or use cookie cutter to cut dough into 12 pieces. 5. Use spatula to place cookies onto lightly greased cookie sheet. Spread 1 teaspoon filling on half of each piece; fold over and use floured fork to seal edges firmly. Prick tops in one or two places. Bake in preheated 375-degree oven for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned. Do not overcook. Continue with remaining dough, greasing cookie sheet each time.
Dear mr troll,
I appluad your fine sense of trolldition! But I feel that your troll could use a bit of polish. I tried to find a reference to the "controversy" about who the "real" "discoverer" of the "planet" "Pluto" was, but unfortunately, the first hit on google was this : Discovery of Uranus

No worries about this guy taking my job...
It looks like an interesting way to burn yourself. Seriously. The bubble looks kind of warped, and the hole he cut out cetainly looks home made, especially with the bubble on because they are not exactly the same size. He should have just taken a dell case that has a similar bubble already made that actually looks nice, and modify the bubble instead of making a half-assed crappy looking bubble himself
I like case mods, but to make it onto slashdot, i would expect it to be somewhat impressive, not a "why the hell did this make it to slashdot" kinda thing.

I agree. There are so many brilliant case mods out there that this really does look like rubbish. It must have been a "slow news day" on /. today otherwise I doubt this would have rated a mention.

Everything is water cooled, from the PSU to the HDD !
It is more interesting that this crappy bubble mod !
use a heat gun, easier, cleaner less hazard, and if your a freak for beauty like i am, if you set your temps right you can keep your plexiglass 100% unblemished and distoreded, nice and perfect consistancy, i have done this with plexiglass more than once when makeing a custom fan ducting while guarenteeing 100% freash outside air to meet the cpu fins and then exhausted directly out of the case, also works well if you make some sort of preconfigured molding for the part to rest against , an aluminum section cut with enough space for a drop will give you a nice clean drop and half circle configuration
yeah
His site is working fine, so I'm removing my mirror.
Mirroring it took about 3gb of bandwidth in the last day.
The access log for the last day is about 23mb.
Actually, my post was factual, expressed a real opinion and, perhaps, a differing view on the topic. It was not in any way a troll, flamebait or off-topic.
As for the nick, what is it they say about "the most sincere form of flattery"?
In fact, having reached the karma cap with only 94 posts under another name, I decided to try again, this time with a self-imposed, specific (presumed) handicap. I do not intend to troll under this nom de plume, but I eagerly anticipate reactions, such as yours, which are targeted not at the content of my posts, but at the nickname alone.
All things in moderation.
