| Jeff Urban <jurb6006@gmail.com>: Dec 20 01:31PM -0800 That won't work since the drivers are the problem. But I am surprised you even took a few minutes to give me an answer because I know you are really not fond of me. I guess you are more of a Man than I thought, you don't hate. Only children hate, and you know we do have a prime example and who it is... Anyway I resurrected an XP box and got it just about set up. I guess I will concede that this printer is over ten years old and maybe it just won't run on the new shit. Very low page count though. This board does have the advantage of supporting more RAM, it had 4 when I got it but since I was going XP I downed it to 3 because it can't use more than 3.3. Now here's an interesting thing, IF it had onboard video could I stick a bunch more ram in it leaving XP with it's 3.3 ad using the rest for video ? It is a moot point because it does not have onboard video, but on a board that does... ??? HA, earlier I told someone I was gong to the basement/shop and building me a state of the art PC, 20 year old software running on 10 year old hardware, but the hardware might be newer. You know, this is a peeve of mine now that I have to do this. Like all this software I got, it won't run, but on XP it will. And I use it. It is just so easy to rescale images, print schematics in sections, which I had to do to work on a frequency counter and something else... Now the problem is I need 3 more SATA ports. This thing only has 2. I got 2 drives to live in there and one I need to do the "Take possession of these files" thing from the boot drive of the old one. I am glad I stopped using the "My Documents" and made directories for most of my stuff. Like I said I am not that worried about security. Even the kinky sex pictures of me and...well I don't name names. Nobody can do jack shit to me. Anyway, thanks for your effort. Now I need to find a PCI SATA card. Nice thing about that is they'll all fit then. |

Despite my opinion of your free association rants about things, you are NOT in the same category as Arlen. > Anyway I resurrected an XP box and got it just about set up. I still think you should get the USB to Network adapter. You can run that as a network printer on XP. You can also try running the earlier drivers on a later version of Windows and see if they will talk to it as a network printer. -- "I am a river to my people."

Have you ever done a life-time analysis of a solar panel? a) Impact of mining the materials going into the panel. b) Transporting those materials for refining and processing. c) Transporting the refined materials to the assembly factory. d) Assembly into panels and testing. e) Transportation to the installation point. f) Installation and materials required to do so - as above. g) Service life (return on first-costs) (approximately 20 years). h) Removal and restoration of the installation site. g) Disposition of the removed materials. In the US, the average cost per KW of actual capacity is about $3,000 before tax credits, and not counting the cost of land, if needed. The average solar panel is about 40% efficient at the equator and assuming 100% sunny days - this is not solar efficiency, but actual production-to-nameplate numbers. So, in North America, that drops to about 25%. The average cost per KWH, nationwide is about $0.1319. But to make the panels 'look better', let's use $0.14. So, a panel with a nameplate of 1,000 watts (1kw) will make 6,000 watts per day of actual power, on average. Or, $0.84 per day. Average of $25.55 per month. Or, $306.60 per year. On a straight-line payback (no time-value of money included), the first-cost will be paid back in 9.8 years. We still have not counted the cost of proper disposition. And we have carefully elided on the environmental impact in their manufacture. What makes solar panels 'practical' as a primary generator of electric power is that the various governments have bamboozled their taxpaying constituents into subsidizing their use for no discernible return. If one wishes to be 'off the grid', then solar power is a perfectly legitimate option. But it should in no way be subsidized with tax revenue. Properly managed, nuclear power is cheaper and cleaner than solar power. The issue is, simply, that the political will to manage it properly does not yet exist. Properly managed, wind power is vastly cheaper and vastly cleaner than solar power. The issue is, simply, that not every site is amenable to wind. Then, there is tidal power. Not cheap, but once the plant is built, it will last pretty much indefinitely. Solar power is one of the greatest frauds perpetrated on the General Public since Madoff and/or Enron.
