Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot. The thing I hate most is that I didn't have a better idea.

I have the same god damn stupid printer. I love that I got it from my father, but it is one of the worst printers ever. It ate in cartridges in less than 100 pages (color or B&W) until I stopped feeding it. My last 3 1/2 years of school I used the labs for all of my printing.
If you have any good ideas for the death of this printer, let me know. I was thinking about leaving it duck taped to a chair in the desert for a week, but it's probably only effective on humans.
Every HP I have ever come across has made it no farther than a year without becoming a heap of broken crap.
Threw my last one in down the emptied flood channel, along with an 8086 I had in the garage.

Let me qualify... The Epson Stylus 500 Color is a piece of crap printer. The 800 uses the same cartridges (methinkgs), so probalby has the same problems. You can extend to other Epson printers (which I do in my head), but do your research first.
I've never had a problem with HP printers. Especially office LaserJet printers... mmmm... laser. I'd probably pick up the cheapest HP Laser for home sometime in the near future.
. I don't feel like making my own either. Maybe the thermite fairy will visit me, hehe.
Speaking of which, what would happen if you wanted to destroy to things by making one a projectile? Like launching a VoodooGraphics chip at an Epson Stylus 500 Color printer near lightspeed... I have all the parts necessary, I live in the desert, just don't have a camera.
I think this adds a new dimensionality to destroying stuff: the "what would win in a highspeed collision between..." factor. Yippee!!!

Y'know, school had a stylus color 2, which was actually quite good. I think they must really have fucked up when they went to that new ink formulation.
And the paper feeder misfed literally about 80\% of the time.
The text was so damn bad.
Anyway, I have a HP now. It does very good text, and feels quite solid...
So, it might break down in a couple of months, eh?
BTW, I agree: HP lasers rock. To bad the inkjets suck balls.
after:
Heh.

What the hell am I looking at? The picture is too fuzzy and small (kinda like Sithee's schlong). Is that a girl or a guy? That's not you, is it?

Slightly off topic, but:
NEVER place ANYTHING in the mouth of someone who is having a seizure. It is impossible for them to swallow their tongue. Sticking anything in their mouth could cause them to choke, and even if not, you still run the risk of getting bitten while trying to put it in.
If someone has a seizure, just assist him/her to the floor and if possible, move furniture away to prevent him/her from hitting it. And of course, call 911 as soon as possible.
Again, sorry for being off topic, but this is important to know.
Fuzzy = motion
Small = sorry, but I put in the arrows for your convinience.
Anyway, yah, that's me. I was younger there... ummm 13 years old. I usued to have really long hair too.

according to my mom, who is a RN, you can swallow your tounge during a seziure. but do not put your hands near their mouth (as you said) they will bite your fingers off.

What happens is they uncontrolablly bite down, sometimes on their tounge, and often hard enough to sevre it.
After that they just swallow, and wah-lah, no more tounge.
