...With the onrush of home PCs practically as powerful as mainframes and digital cameras that match film quality, printers and scanners have become essential helpmates at astonishing prices. For printers this has been the year of the color inkjet. They've nearly caught up with laser printers in terms of quality and speed, yet you can get a low-end inkjet for $50 and one with photo-quality output for less than $400.

You will be assimilated...

The onrush of swinging hips severelycontradicts the dancers' classic appearances,especially of the women, en point and hair pulledinto tight buns. The dancers stream across thestage with impressive leaps and astound theaudience with lifts more characteristic of "StarSearch" dance competitions...
