Please forgive me if this is a repeat.  I got some bounced mail from
my first posting that leads me to think it got scrozzled somehow...

This post was prompted by a previous post on laser writers having
spikes in power use.  I have had experience with an Apple Personal
Laser Writer NT that causes lights on the same circuit to dim for a
fraction of a second every few seconds when it is on, as if it is
pulling a fairly large current (but not enough to trip the 10 amp fuse
on my surge-protector).

Is this normal?

Thanks.
