What Do You Do When You Need Competitive Copier Specs?
Years ago and I'm talking before the dawn of the internet. There were only a few ways you could get information on other manufacturers copiers. BI (before internet) 1) Call your competitor and ask to speak to a sales person and fib about who you are, your company, and give a BS call back number. We did this many times in order to get answers to those speed, feed and feature questions. In many cases we got snagged and had to hang up. 2) Another way was to get your significant other to do your...

The death of King Herold & The victory of Duke Willem
When King Harold was mortally wounded (by an arrow in the right eye), the Anglo-Saxons fell back and the Norman knights could continue their victory march. King Harold, still sitting on his horse, suffered horribly when the Norman knights surrounded him and killed him with their swords. Only a few Anglo-Saxons reached the woods and survived. Duke Willem of Normandy set up his tent on top of the battlefield and slept between the death bodies of his enemy’s. Are we King Herold or Duke Willem?

Competitive Wide Format pricing
