I had some good experiences with their lasers, especially in big government departments.

Of course, I was the contracted Lexmark service agent, so my good experiences were in being paid to work on them. ;-)


(To be fair, they were a decent workhorse. That said, they were all equipped with PostScript, so I didn't have to deal with driver issues.)

Wow... I'm actually in the boondocks of South Australia. Population is 1,500, the nearest major city is a population of 15,000.

I can see two shiny 3G towers from my bedroom window. (Telstra and OpenNetwork (Optus/Vodafone etc))

If mobile carriers there don't think that a city with 500k population doesn't warrant a tower or two, then I'm afraid there's no hope for your telco industry.

Came to put in an Atari post, glad to see someone else had already done it.

GEM on the ST was great - MultiTOS/MiNT on the Falcon 030 was even better. All during times that a PC that cost 6 times as much couldn't touch it.


This is an apt poll for me. I had a major case of nostalgia in the leadup to my birthday and just bought a Falcon 030 on eBay. I was one of the lucky ones to get one originally (apparently the first one in Oz), but stupidly got rid of it in order to finance my first x86 machine when it was obvious that the Atari platform was dead.

As someone already said, that was a default configuration. They could be upgraded to 4Mb with the integrated MMU.

3rd party upgrades that replaced the MMU were able to get 14Mb of RAM, just like the Falcon 030.
