"'I'd pick up a book on the programming language they're using to code.Even if you never put your fingers to the keyboard, it will gain you credibility, which will make you, as a manager, a thousand times more effective."

"I bet you'd make a tidy bundle selling low-maintenance printers"
Or an easier way to make a tidy bundle is to sell a really cheap printer then charge a lot for the ink.

You would have to sell your printer just as cheaply as the high dollar ink variety, or no one will buy it(at least the average buying public would not)

for 10 years I have listened to my family complain of the high cost of ink and every time I offer the same advice, purchase a laser printer like I have and you can print a 5000 sheet case of paper for $75 - $100 dollars.
And for 10 years they have continued to purchase the "I just got a new all in one for $49.00" models.

"but I was using an atari 400 at the time."

The article only mentions $15 per month for Sega channel in 94-98.

PlayCable in 81-83 at the same cost would seem pretty steep.

At 43 I am old enough to have been the target demographics I was using an atari 400 at the time.

It seems to me it they have an attraction to electrical equipment that would solve the problem of attracting them to an electronic ant zapper.

"Wonder how they define "egregious and fraudulent"?"

any trades that resulted in a loss.

Any trades that resulted in a gain we will just keep the difference and call it ok.
