1. sad.
The vultures that feasted on Jimi Hendrix when he was alive will continue to. However, as consumers of his wonderful music, we can select products put out by his family. They are of the highest quality.

4. HP makes crap
Their laser printers are okay I suppose, but their ink jets and especially scanners are outright rubbish and a waste of plastic.

5. I was not refering to hp.....
.... to me their use of Jimi is akin to "Crazy Horse Malt Liquor." I am also offended by the numerous low-quality music releases of Jimi, and meant that people should only buy select cds. Sorry!
