Homebrew PCBs

Epson leads the way in inkjet printers.  I think they are the best and 
most dependible I have ever used (although I have only used a few).  
They are also the first to make a low cost DVD/CD printing printer, the 
R200 ($99). 

This will be awesome for not having to use etchant, not having to send 
out PCBs, ... all around very good.

Of course I couldn't get mamagement to look beyond their current product line.  I'd like to think that our ink jet guys make the inks, but probably not.
