In this how to mod they have converted a standard Xerox laser printer into an automatic high volume paper shredder. Just what we need to take care of those pesky alien autopsy photos, TPS reports, and Apple & IBM's CPU Contracts."

    this is like turning a 911 into a Chevette. :-)
    Yes, well... except that the laser printer they used was actually dead and there was a need for a bulk shredder. And why, so the reasoning goes, buy an expensive bulk shredder when you can build one using the knackered laser printer?

    So yeah, it is like turning a 911 into a Chevette.... except that you've slammed the 911 into a tree the day before and actually have a use for a Chevette - maybe some Chevette fan is offering you loads of money for it? :)
