johns@hp-ptp.HP.COM (John_Schubert) (11/12/89)

I don't usually watch shopping channels on cable, in fact I HATE them, but
that's another subject...  The other day while changing stations, I went
past the shopping channel and they had a picture of an HP ThinJet printer
on the screen. This of course caught my attention... The price they are
offering is $179.!! Amazing!!! For those reading this that are HP employees,
you understand my amazement. Lets just say this is a good deal. So for those
who are looking for a small, quiet printer, I'll save you the pain of having to
watch CVN waiting for them to show this one again:
	HP ThinkJet Printer
	order # X-86250
	$179.00
To order by credit card, call (800) 422-2454

Sure is!  Year-and-a-half ago I picked one up at a regional C-Land warehouse
sale for $100.- plus tax -- and ten reams of the matching HPaper set me back
another $20.- .  (Perfect screen-dump printer for my HP-700/22 vt220-clone.)
Glad I didn't wait for this "amazing!!!" cable-channel "bargain" :-} .
