Well here is the simple 2-step solution I chose for this dilemma.
1) Determine just how much you really *need* color. For me the answer to this was mainly to print out digital photos or occasional projects for my son. The rest (vast majority) of my printing needs could be met with b&w/grayscale.
2)Keep your injet for above and purchase an inexpensive laser. I found that the Samsung ML 1210 works great...even grayscale and color links from the web (despite what some reviewers say). I got it for $129 after rebate from Best Buy(and, no, I don't work for BB).
