  3. More about the free Xerox Tektronix 860 on Anti-Competitive Behavior in the Printer Industry? · · Score: 1

    It is about a color laser network printer that prints nice glossy color on Regular paper. Xerox will give you one for free right now if you qualify (print 2000-3000 pages a month) for the program and agree to print and fax a use report once a month. There are no strings attached and you can cancel any time just pay shipping to return the printer (they pay shipping to give you the printer). (We got into the program by agreeing to print 2750 pages a month) If you think you could print anywhere near 2000 pages a month you really should not let this one slip by. Our computer guy thinks that Xerox is doing a "real world use trial." All I know is so far it is a deal that is too good to be true :) This is the web site: http://www.freecolorprinters.com/ This is what I agreed to (the supplies are not too expensive and You can use any paper you want): PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS As a Xerox FreeColorPrinters customer, you have agreed to... - Purchase supplies directly from FreeColorPrinters.com. Customers can conveniently purchase supplies from our Members Only website. - Print XXXX pages every month. If your monthly average falls below this number, you will receive a $75 billing for that month. - Supply a monthly usage report via fax. If you do not submit a report, you will receive a $100 billing for that month. Directions for easily printing and faxing this report can be found in the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) in the Members Only website. After participating in the program for 36 months, the title to the printer is transferred from Xerox to you, the customer. At this point, the printer is yours to keep with no further obligation.

    We have this printer at work too. It is the best printer I have ever used. And Xerox gave it to us for free.

  8. Re:Save money on Making Your Room Quiet · · Score: 1
    Cool site, but I don't know if you will save money. The last line says:

    "All in all, kind of fun and only around three times as expensive as if I had bought something from a store ;). "

  9. Re:You have got to be kidding me.. on Linux DVD Player on a Bootable CD? · · Score: 1

    Yes, but that $99 DVD mp3 player will not copy the DVD to HD so you can send it back to netflix ... um ... I meant to say ... make a (legal?) back-up of a store bought DVD for home use.

  10. PST ... Arnold, need a plot writer? on Terminator 3: Attack of the Terminatrix · · Score: 1

    Sure Arnold is getting old and it would be a shame to screw up T2, but ... "Details are scarce right now, but some plot points are known. The war against the machines and the humans will happen in 2001, and this film will show how it happens." What if they say the US the Predator drone armed with missiles in Afghanistan were the start of machine and human war that takes place in 2001 ... I would sure go to see it no mater how old Arnold looks.

  11. Re:Can be used for airport security? on Rendering Ultrasonic Imagery: The Sonic Flashlight · · Score: 1

    no it can not be used in airports, ultrasound doesn't pass thru the air very well so you have to use a jell or other liquid on the skin in the medical setting.

  13. Theme song on You May Not Link This Web Site · · Score: 2, Funny

    Theme song for a law and finance firm... Did these guys really go to law school or did they just watch a lot of Ally McBeal?

  14. Re:Does it have to stay on the ground? on BBC's Water Rocket-Vehicle Contest · · Score: 1

    Staying on the ground is the trick to this contest. It is easy (and a lot of fun) to make any 2-liter bottle shoot up in the air with water and an air compressor. The engineering challenge of this contest is to get all the water to shoot sideways with out letting the propellant (air) to escape unused.

    BTW if you have never made a 2L rocket I highly recommend it. But...I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS!

    Wow Hard Drivin was my all time favorite driving game. Does anyone know how much these old arcade games go for? Where would you buy these machines? And most importantly how do I convince my wife that this is a good investment?
