01 Message from the Infomanager Team:
As we embark on the new year we're reaching out to the user
group community with an invitation to get involved, and participate
by contributing your articles, reviews, interviews and news items
for publication and distribution through the InfoManager.
Since 1994, the InfoManager has brought Monday morning news,
reviews and views to readers on a global scale. (Well, with the
exception of a few that we missed!) Our migration from AOL,
to the web -- then from the User-Groups.net site to the InfoManager
blog has followed the development of information media
-- and in the few past years, has grown in popularity.
We know you've got important information to share.
We're inviting you to share it with a greater community as part
of the UGNN InfoManager. If you think you'd like to be part of
the team, just let us know.

05 Piles of InkJet Printers
George Engel writes : What to do, what to do, what to do...
While I was looking for some Christmas Ornaments in
my Utility Shed the other day, I kept moving around my three (3)
almost-new empty Epson and Canon Inket Printers. In the house
we have three (3) more InkJet printers that I rarely use anymore.
I have one on my rarely-used PC, one on my Mac Tower and one on
Arlene's iMac. Then there's the Canon Selphy, my 4 6 color
Inkjet printer, along with the two dozen packs of "Premium
Glossy Photo Paper" under the desk, gathering dust.
All of this equipment hardly being used anymore.
Why is that?

A leader is best
When people barely know he exists,
When his work is done, his aim fulfilled,
They will say:
We did it ourselves.
