19. Well, that's discouraging. I will never by an ink printer, now. I have a laser printer.

Computers are designed for obsolescence, too. The software becomes slow, then unusable. Then you can't use generic versions of it. Then the laptop that still works fine at a year old, suddenly breaks a simple part, like the plugin port...that turns out to be too expensive to replace so might as well buy a new computer.

It's all a scam. Sometimes it makes me want to throw all the 21st century stuff out the window and return to a simpler way of life. But I don't.
