>>It was a lot of fun... will install the Windows 7 as soon as HP upgrades the drivers for its OfficeJet 6500 printer (which I picked up for a song from Office-Depot for about $20 !! (you can too! It has been reduced to be on Instant Sale for $99.99 - and with a trade in of ANY printer you get an Instant Rebate of $50 taking it down to $49.99. The INK in my old printer had run out and was going to cost around $30... so $49.99 - $30.00 = $19.99 for the printer (it comes with its own ink inside!).... But it doesn't have the Windows 7 printer drivers yet from HP... will be out later this month!) So when that comes out, I will reinstall everything with Windows 7!!!

>Not at Office Depot, though. They are one of the big box chains that have gone under in the past year or two.

Not down here, Mike! There are 3 of them here in Greensboro.....

>Re ink, do a google on misleading early warnings of ink cartridges going dry. There has been some publicity, involving HP and possibly other manufacturers. I don't replace mine until I actually see the problem on printouts. Also, know that the ink cartridges that come with new printers are not full ones.

My BIG problem is my DAUGHTER!!! She prints out lots of stuff unnecessarily!!! I'm gonna start charging her !!!

>The event sounds like it was worthwhile. By the time I tried to sign up it was too late here.
