Lines: 19 In article <813@eecea.eece.ksu.edu> gordon@eecea.UUCP (Dwight Gordon) makes this optimistic comment about 47th Street Photo: > Their computer division may be better. Doubtful...I once asked them about laser printers. The salesman candidly confessed that his company knew little about laser printers or computers and advised me to go elsewhere. I think 47th Street Photo might be best for cameras and off-the-shelf software. The company advertises heavily in lay publications (such as the New York Times, when I last looked), which should tell you that it's looking mostly for nontechnical customers. However, when I once asked some technical questions about a camera that the company was heavily promoting in its ads, neither the salesperson nor the technical support person could answer them. -- Rahul Dhesi UUCP: oliveb!cirrusl!dhesi
