"I just bought a Deskjet Plus printer. Wow, is it impressive!"
My response: WHIMPER
"I am one of those people who saw the plain Deskjet and wondered why
anyone would bother buying such a slow, overpriced printer."
Probably cause I needed 300 DPI and was able to get my DeskJet for
$600.00 at a local PC wholesale club.
"[The DeskJet is a] Useless heap of junk, in my opinion."
Diane! Shame on you. My DeskJet thought that you were its friend!
" P.S. I hope I haven't offended you plain Deskjet owners too much. If you like
your printer that's just fine with me. To each his own. I'm just saying *I*
didn't think much of the Deskjet."
Gee, is Diana happy with the DeskJet Plus and her ST? Naw, I didn't
think so either. GRIN.
Congrats, Diana. I can't wait to see the Plus in action. Maybe next
year I'll sell my DeskJet Plain for a Plus. Who says we need $1500 and up
for sophisticated 300 DPI printing. The DeskJet opened the door. Sounds
like the Plus is going to really smoke.
Grin, Diana. Maybe you can write up a review and send it on the net?
