Software person, not hardware :-)

I'm in the "if it's not broke don't fix it" category for hardware. Being a thrifty Yankee, I can't see spending money to replace a perfectly good printer--except for the few times a year when it's clearly inadequate for high volume printing needs, and then I start printer shopping.

I was going to say you were more software. Anyway since you're that big DAW/TOR/BANTAM-SPECTRA is JUST around the corner, you've got to have something to print out the enormous checks they'll be sending.

Not to mention all those movie scripts I'll need to approve :-)

no no, let's not be hasty. I haven't written any of them yet.

Did you already say when The Sea Change is due on shelves?

It's an August title, so THE SEA CHANGE goes on sale on July 31st. (Bantam releases their books on the final Tuesday of the previous month).

This is 10 days after the final Harry Potter hits the shelves, so hopefully bookstore employees will have recovered and be capable of open & shelving other titles by this time.

Anyway, it's up at Amazon and various places for preorder.
