Judge denies HP's plea to throw out all-in-one printer lockdown lawsuit
(www.theregister.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I have a cheap HP printer/scanner. It works well enough it's not in the garbage but this and their "I must be signed in" to print bullshit have ensured I won't buy another HP printer when I either get fed up or it dies.
They sell the printers at a loss because they then sell the ink cartridges with so little ink in them that some of the padding is still dry.
