RW> Whats HOT now, is the concept of multifunctional. A
RW> FAX, and a copier, and a way to download faxes from the
RW> internet. One machine replaces that printer as well and
RW> can scan a copy into your computer.
Basically, they intergrate a cheap modem/fax chipset, a lackluster scanner,
and a lackluster LED/thermal/ink jet printer... into a lackluster package.
RW> Becuase of this, prices of machines that were once up
RW> to 1000 dollars is now only 300, because they are not
RW> multifunctional.
No big deal, Fax machines had always been at about $300... for a long time
already...
RW> What the difference is between the big leagues and selling for
RW> 1000 or just 300 is the service that is privided. Xerox type
RW> service of only a 3 hour wait makes machines tripple in
RW> value, because... because they WORK and do the job that
RW> they were sold to do!
Yeah, yeah, yeah... and next you are gonna sell us a machine like that, eh?
No thank you... with that $1000... I'd use $300 for EPSON's Stylus Color
series printer, $300 for Courier (whatever the price is now) and save
the rest when I can accumliate enough to get a decent desktop flatbed
scanner... and I can transmit and receive better than that machine, print
better than that machine... and the scanner when bought, will do a LOT
better for a couple hundred dollars more...
... He who dies with the most TAGLINES, DIES!
