Smart: I have started typing a LOT less, using the control key less (kills my productivity). Dumb: I have not sought professional help for it. 46302,05,06/04/93,NORB DEMBINSKI,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/SOUND ADAPTERS, Ward: This is to be put in my 8580-111 that has been upgraded to a 486-33 with SCSI for the HD, CD-ROM, and 3.5" R/W Opt drives. The Sound Blaster works but has problems with Enhanced mode Windows. 46303,10,06/04/93,NORB DEMBINSKI,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/HP 1200C DESKJET PRINTER, Ward: The SRP of the HP 1200C is $1995.00 and the 1200C/PS is 2395.00. The street price is about $400.00 cheaper on each model. The largest size paper is 8.5X14 same as the HP LaserJet models. I think that HP will probably come out ith another model in about six months called the 1800C and the 1800C/PS that will print on 12X18 paper or B-size. They have developed larger ink cartridges for the 1200C and I believe that this is a prelude to a larger paper size. The printing speed is also up on this machine, faster than the DeskJet 550C. What do you think? 46402,07,08/04/93,BENJAMIN COHEN,WARD CHRISTENSEN R/GENEVA, Well, actually I don't have a way to make a copy, but I have a friend who does (Bill Wolff), so it shouldn't be a big problem. I've never gotten much into the innards of the thing, but there is a clock of some sort, so it just might be possible. I do have a set of manuals, if Andy doesn't/didn't furnish any, if you'd like to look at them. [Not to mention a spare 300 bps modem wedge, rah rah!] 46403,03,08/05/93,PAT BALL,ALL WINDOWS TERMINAL, When I log on the info comes in waves rather than one line at a time. Any suggestions?
