Digital BW, The Print

Hi.I'm not Keith but have to comment on this.

Neither Epson nor any other commercial entity (save perhaps public
utilities by law) have a "right" to recover anything. They exist only
by the sufferance of the market they serve. When and if the market
itself decides to do without their products or services they are
immediately in deep doodoo. Whether it's by way of lousy
service,monopolistic practices that p'off customers,bad products,a
change in fashion or just some unfathomable twitch in the ether the
results are the same. Some other firm will always come along to fill
the vacumn. Enraging a portion of ones customers is a very unwise
practice. IMHO

Regards
Duane
