I bought an HP 4P laser printer which had 600DPI and it was over $900.00 in 1994. I still have it today and it still works. I also bought an HP Laserjet 1300 but it had problems after 4 years of light use. Now I have a Xerox Phaser 3250DN printer so I can print from any machine on my local network. I'm hoping it lasts longer than the HP 1300.

I'm logging a little over 34 miles a day when I bike to work round trip and have my bike equipped with a rack so I can carry waterproof Ortlieb panniers. I have a head and tail light and wear a bright safety green jacket so I'm visible on the road even in low light situations. I carry some extra bike clothes in case it rains in one pannier, and have my street closes in the other pannier. Since I live up in the Pacific Northwest we can get lots of rain and so no bike is complete IMHO without proper fenders being installed. I keep a towel and toiletry kit at work and have showers available in the building I work in. I also have a spare set of shoes at work so I don't need to carry any shoes with me when I bike except my bike shoes which I wear. I know of another colleague in my building that keeps a spare suit case of clothes under his desk so they don't even need panniers and can get by with a backpack although you eventually need to take the suitcase them to do laundry.
