I just got this one for $633. *sigh* I know there is good stuff out there, I just can't afford it. Since I can't write I have to carry a laptop and printer with me to each class. The laptop is almost 8 pounds, the printer about the same, and with the associated cables, books, papers, etc. I'm carrying about 70 pounds between classes. I could get a smaller printer but the one I have now, as large as it is, is only $48 and the black ink cartridges are only $7 each. I could get a printer as small as my laptop, but they want $350 for it.

Same with the laptop, I could get a smaller one that weighs half of what this compact weighs, but it would run $2500.

And I'm not only a poor college student, I'm the father of two poor college students. At least we get to go to school together.
