[ale] Low-Cost Color Laser for Linux

[Paul Manno]

Yeah, I can understand but when there are good deals...

I've usually just watched their small business site.  The current price 
this week is $399 but has been down at $324 within the last month. Some 
folks prefer to watch the discount sites ... kind of your choice.  Good 
cost-effective printing (color around $0.10/page) too but you'll have to 
replace an image belt at 45,000 images.  Oh, and it's NOT a compact unit.

If you're ready for a "certified refurbished" unit, the 3100cn is shown as 
available on their outlet for $299.  Not sure what they certify but may be 
worth looking into for a better bargain.

Don't have anything to do with Dell's products.  Good luck!
