Man, the SE, ImageWriter, and LaserWriter really were peak industrial design. Ain't nobody gonna convince me otherwise.

    I would love to buy an old daisy wheel or print ball impact printer that works using simple LPT over a parallel cable. I’ve not found a reliable source and I’m in Iceland so it’s expensive to play roulette on eBay.

    @compu85 @sdfpubnix your talk about laser printer restoration was great too. Well done!
