so the cost of a new printer is usually just above the cost of a new cartridge.
This doesn't apply to the SCC vs. Lexmark case. The toner in question is for Laser printers which cost much more than the associated toner (Example T632 $849). The toner cartridges cost in the neighborhood of $400 for high-yield cartridges (32,000 pages), and around $150 for low-yield cartridges (5,000 pages). The Return Program print cartridges are discounted to $355 for high, and $99 for low-yield.
Lexmark still makes the majority of profit on a printer from the ongoing sales of consumables (toner), but we don't sell the printers at a loss... Not the high-end laser printers anyway.
To save her life, veterinarians had to amputate three-quarters of her tail with an electronic surgical knife.
Bridgestone said the artificial fin was given to the aquarium for free, but that it cost the company about 10 million yen (95,000 dollars).
Does this not seem like a HUGE waste of money to anyone else? How much is a dolphin in an aquarium worth? Wouldn't it have been cheaper to save the money spent on the surgeon, time, and rubber to just euthanize the dolphin and go out and catch another one?! One that can jump and be happy without being vertical-jumping-challenged?
Extra Queens?! I've never had a chess set with extra Queens. We always just turned the Rook upside-down.
The fact that the Nickel-plated King and Queen don't match the Copper King and Queen is a better reason to complain.
Overall, I would love to receive one of these sets Christmas morning... hint-hint;-)
After making the switch to Mozilla Firefox and using it for two days, I'm hooked. I downloaded the All-in-One Gestures extension, and I can't for the life of me figure out how I ever lived without it. It's a whole new paradigm in browsing.
This is another milestone in the MS exodus towards open source and Linux.
Disclaimer: I do not work for Mozilla... just a satisfied user.
I would definately want to know what is the boss's stile of management.
Is he/she...
... a hands-on type of coach who wants to know day-to-day what you are working on and when are you going to have it completed.
... the hands-off type who enables you to guide your projects and assign completion dates, etc. while always being available for manegement-specific questions.
... a good team-lead?
... going to take the team out for lunch once or twice a year to bond?
A good manager IMHO lets their employees guide their own careers while providing targeted guidance.

I can think of several better uses for $95,000.
