(sigh) I guess I must classify myself as another of those Imagewriter lovers.
I have had an IW-I since spring of '84, which is also how long I have had my
Mac. 5 1/2 years and 2 upgrades (128K Mac => Fat Mac => Mac+) later, both
my Mac & my Imagewriter I are chugging away happily. If I'm not careful I
get that squunched first line on the IW but other than that it's doing a
fine job thank you. I've cleaned the printhead once, and oiled the bar the
head runs on once and that's it. Oh, and by the way, my mac has had ONE
repair since I bought it - the keyboard died and I had to get a replacement.
My kid's broke the internal floppy (which I haven't needed since I built
my own hard disk) and my screen has had the wobblies for the past year or
so but I still am happy with it, too. In fact, if I could afford a Mac II
I'd get one of those and keep the old machine for backup.
