Yeah, I keep a bunch of these things running. Sun now has their own
printer BTW, but the SparcPrinter (I think) requires an SBUS slot and
it will bog down the older Sparcs, works OK with a SS2 though.

This has me confused, the Apple printers are dumb, they know naught of
the network. We hook then to the serial ports of the printserver. If
they do not work, then Newsprint is hosed, or whatever. The simplest
was to get it started (assuming no other problems, like a full filesystem)
is to reboot the machine the printer is attached to. Otherwise it sounds
like a network or printcap problem.

	The following deduction has a bug. C if u can figure where...

	Three guys rent a three-bed room in a hotel, each one paying $10.
	Late that night, the hotel manager finds ou he made a mistake:
	The price of the room was not $30 but $25, so he called an
	employee and told him to give the $5 back to the clients.
	And so it went. But the employee started thinking: How am I going to
	split the money between the 3 guys ? I better keep $2, and so give
	$1 to each of them,
	Conclusion:
		Each client payed $9 ($10 - $1), and 3x9 = 27 plus the 
	$2 the employee kept, that makes $29...
	
	Where is the missing $ ???

(This was addapted to USD', so I guess the prices must not correspond
to real life prices)

Yes, if we are attacked by too many cascades, we will be a cripple.

Maybe no-one bites with the comment about the macs because macs are slow,

On the original Rickett's House purity test 100 questions and before

One woman I knew scored a 0.  We got to know each *much* better after

How's this one....

A lady calls the customer assist hotline for information on how to backup
disks.  The engineer says "Okay, just put a clean floppy in drive A"
"Hang on a sec" she says and leaves the phone to do so.  She then returns
and says that the computer now doesn't work.  Intreigued (sp?), he asks
her EXACTLY what she did.  Seems that she washed the disk....
