Re: A Day That Will Never Be Forgotten
I had gone surfing 60 miles south of NYC before work that morning. It was one of the clearest mornings of that fall with perfect waves. Just a perfect after cold front morning. Not a cloud in the sky. I was a technician at the time and on my way to the first call of the day I heard on the radio of the first plane. I got to my first call and the office TV was directly over the copier. I was watching live when the second plane hit. I was at my second call of the day watching on their TV when...

Re: B2C defined
Allow me to comment on this for a moment. Ricoh B2C is a strategy, not a product. The conecpt of B2C came about as an effort to transform B&W customers into color. The B2C strategy was to offer a system that was equivalent to B&W systems in every feature and function, with comparable B&W CPC. Most importantly, systems like this did not need a color specialist to sell as typical customers were just looking to make sure reference colors were in place (ie red apples, blue sky, and...

Re: B2C defined
Correct. B2C means "Black to Color." This term was created about 5 years ago to designate the "next big thing" in the industry, which was the move from black & white output to color output in the office. Sort of along the lines of "A-to-D" for the Analog to Digital transition. I think the results of the last few years are proof that this revolution has happened (and is still happening). And to re-iterate what Eddie 2 Times said, Ricoh color MFPs can be used in a B2C environment...

Re: Gas Price Check

Re: New sales hire goals
