Printer leader H-P using color to stay on top
Company unveils new models in hopes of stunting Dell's ascension
SAN JOSE, Calif. – In the escalating war over computer printers, the latest battle is being fought in color.
Hewlett-Packard Co. unveiled several new color printers and related supplies Monday in its latest maneuver to outflank feisty newcomer Dell Inc. and maintain its sizable lead in the business.
Among H-P's new offerings is a $700 color laser printer for business that takes aim at Dell. H-P also unveiled a new toner technology it claims delivers 20 percent more color and 40 percent more gloss than other toners.
Earlier this year, H-P introduced a bare-bones $400 color laser printer that matched Dell's price for a similar machine. Dell now sells a color laser printer for $260.
At those prices, business and home users can get print-shop quality color machines for about the same price that some lower-quality ink-jet printers cost just a few years ago.
That's increasingly important to businesses such as real estate offices, retailers and others that print an estimated 21 billion color pages each year for fliers, brochures and other materials.
"If you look at small and medium-sized businesses, what they want is to look like a big company, but they don't have a big-company budget," said Vyomesh Joshi, who heads H-P's imaging and printing group. With the new color laser printers, Joshi said, companies can produce a typical brochure for about $180, compared to about $600 at a print shop.
H-P helped create the printer business and today is the industry's undisputed leader.
According to technology research company IDC, H-P controls about 45 percent of the overall printer market, well ahead of No. 2 Dell's 15 percent market share.
But Dell has been making significant headway in an industry it entered less than three years ago. That's especially true in the color laser printer business, which is widely considered the fastest-growing and most profitable part of the market.
According to IDC, Dell captured about 12 percent of that market and became the No. 3 seller of color laser printers and all-in-one-devices in its first year in the business; H-P's market share in that business fell slightly to 35 percent. Dell only recently started selling higher-end printers.
"I think they (H-P executives) are probably extremely concerned about Dell in certain areas," said Dan Smyth, an analyst with research firm Current Analysis Inc. "Dell has forced everyone to become more price-competitive," especially in the lower-priced ink-jet printer business.
According to Lyra Research Inc., shipments of color laser, multifunction printers are expected to grow by 220 percent over the next four years.
What makes the business even more attractive to printer companies is that color machines typically use four times as much toner as black-and-white machines. Color supplies also typically cost more than black-and-white supplies. About 58 percent of H-P's printer group revenue comes from supplies.
"Basically Dell's success in this business relies on the (supplies)," said Smyth of Current Analysis. "We're all kind of still waiting to see how that works out."
Like H-P, Dell is planning a greater focus on color and on small and medium-sized businesses, said Tony Mara, Dell's senior manager for printer product marketing.
For years, Dell sold computers almost exclusively to business users.When it entered the printer business, though, Dell focused almost exclusively on consumers, offering low-priced, even free, ink-jet printers with new computer purchases.
"Starting out, we felt we could get penetration pretty quickly" with consumer sales, Mara said. "Over time, you're going to see us moving more into what we do in our core side . . . business- to-business."
Joshi, who has set a company goal of doubling H-P's printer business within a decade, dismisses Dell as just another competitor.
IDC analyst Keith Kmetz doesn't see H-P losing its lead any time soon, but he cautions, "(Dell) is certainly nipping at their heels."
Joshi predicted that H-P will remain the market leader in part by relying on superior technology. It does all its printer research in-house, while Dell basically re-brands printers made by Lexmark, Kodak, Samsung and Fuji Xerox, he said.

The accused is powerless to remove any name from the list unless for over-age or non-residence.
The members of the committee might not be voters because of age, non-residence, etc.
But non-residence was one of the scandals of the age and Hugh was inflexible in this matter.
Richard of the Devizes, his account of the non-residence of canons, 86, 173.
The non-residence of Canons became a matter of complaint in the twelfth century.
Against this were to be set the "enclosing" and "non-residence" grievances.
non-residence and plurality, however, were not confined to foreigners.
In the thirteenth century even more than afterwards, the great difficulty in the working of secular colleges was non-residence.
The leave of non-residence is sometimes extended to two or three years, or renewed from time to time.
We have glimpses of the reasons for which licences of non-residence were sometimes given.

Hi, one of the many small improvements I've added recently: smashable pottery! which of course you can grab and use as a weapon :D
thanks :) I don't have a time frame for greenlight yet, but I guess I have to hurry before they shut it down!
Hey, New update to report. I've added an axe and will soon be finishing a mace, which help adding some variety to the combat. Chopping heads with the axe feels even more chunky :)
Hi, Time for a small update. A lot of effort went into improving the pathfinding lately which took quite some time. But in the meantime many other improvements have been made all around. Among the latest, I've polished the way kick works when near ledges, also causing tripping before the fall
Update: Teaser trailer is unveiled! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bOc83iiXqM[/media]

Thanks to a complex and protracted investigation an Organised Crime Gang has been dismantled and a significant amount of drugs and £1.2m taken off the streets.
Operation Hallett, which was managed by TARIAN, the Welsh Regional Organised Crime Unit, was a two-year investigation involving covert policing techniques.
Following the trial 22 defendants were sentenced for a variety of drug supplying offences.
They formed part of a wider crime group from the Merseyside, Manchester, South Wales and Essex areas.
In addition to the drugs haul of more than 88kg's of Amphetamine and almost 200kg of cannabis, the gang also had £1.2 million seized, which police proved was part of the drug dealing activities.
The head of the crime group was Michael MARTIN, from Bargoed, who utilised his underworld contacts across the UK to form a drug empire.
During the course of the investigation an address in Ystrad Rhondda was searched which led to the recovery of £1.2 million in cash, along with a sawn off shotgun, cartridges and a cheetah Stun Gun. This cash seizure highlighted to the enquiry team the sheer scope and influence of the various Organised Crime Groups colluding with Michael MARTIN, as well as the vast gains that were available within the drug dealing fraternity.
DCI Huw Davies of the Regional Organised Crime Unit commented: "This is another positive result for the Welsh Regional Organised Crime unit and the communities we serve, the sentencing reflects the professionalism and tenacity of the investigating team, together with the Crown Prosecution Service during what can only be described as a complex enquiry.
"Clearly the individuals involved in this case, especially Michael Martin, have no regard for the law and were intent on making large sums of money from their drug dealing activities, with no consideration of the terrible impact their actions were having on our communities."
"The level of this investigation and sentencing should send a clear message to those intent on committing serious crime within our region, that you will ultimately be held responsible for your actions.
"We are committed to targeting all forms of organised criminals and I would like to take this opportunity to appeal to the public that if they have any information that can help us then please contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."

Lalit Modi is one of India's most successful and visionary entrepreneurs.
His 20 year career has spanned the worlds of industry, entertainment and sport, a blend of expertise that combined in 2008 to create the Indian Premier League: (IPL) one of the world's most exciting and celebrated sports leagues.
Lalit, 53, began his career in the world of Indian industry as President and Managing Director of Modi Enterprises. In 1993, he ventured into the entertainment world, creating a partnership with Walt Disney Pictures that brought the world famous studio's programming to million's of Indian's television screens.
The following year, Lalit moved into sports broadcasting through an exclusive deal with the US sports television giant ESPN to distribute its sporting content throughout India.
A passionate, and life-long cricket fan, Lalit was elected President of Rajasthan Cricket Association in 2004 and at the same time joined the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). The following year he became BCCI Vice-President with responsibility for the Board's commercial interests.
Under Lalit's stewardship, Indian cricket enjoyed a commercial revolution. Through a series of innovative partnerships with leading global brands and broadcasters including Nike, Sahara, Sony, ESPN and Viacom, Indian cricket's revenues increased seven fold between 2005 and 2008. In 2008 the BCCI enjoyed record annual revenues of $1 billion.
Lalit's family runs a flourishing business covering a varied number of fields.
In 2008 Lalit created the Indian Premier League, a unique blend of sport, entertainment and Bollywood glamour. Featuring the world's greatest cricket players, the Twenty20 tournament has become, in just four years, a phenomenal success. The league is currently valued in excess of $4 billion and enjoys an annual, global audience of 182 million.
The IPL's unprecedented success inspired Forbes Magazine to describe it, in 2009, as the 'world's hottest sports league'.
A series of threats to Lalit's safety (following a high profile disagreement with the BCCI) led him and his family to leave India in 2010. Lalit currently lives in London where he is pursuing a number of new and typically exciting ventures.
Lalit is married to Minal; they have three children Karima, Ruchir and Aliya.

Ratings for Dr. William F. Finan
This dr twice has refused to engage in appropriate care for both my husband and father because he jumped to the conclusion that they were drug seeking (which they weren't) complaints have been made several times to Baymeadows Healthcare and they will not resolve the issue. DO NOT SEE THIS DOCTOR he has forgotten the oath he took to become a physician in the first place.
I've been seeing Dr Finan for the past 3 years and never had issue with him. However recently he wrote a wrong prescription for me, I didn't realize it till I picked it up from the pharmacy. When went to his office to have him resolve it. He got rude, basically called me a liar and that it wasn't his fault I didn't read the script before leaving his office. I brought copies that of the script that pharmacy provided to me and he still refused to even see me, receptionist was running back and forth. He even refused to check his log for that day that would've shown him he never prescribed my regular prescription. I spent 4 hours that day to try to resolve it and basically got turned down. Horrible experience. Wait time is always at least one hour, to call and make an appointment sometimes you'll be on hold for over 15 min. Will never go back there, and we seek displinary actions against Dr Finan for writing a wrong script and refusing to fix the problem and put me as a patient thru stress.
Dr.Finan took extra time with my daughter who has crohns he went the extra mile to make sure she got the meds she needed and asked alot of family history we are very pleased to add this Dr. to her medical team.
There is no customer service at his place of practice (Baymeadows Primary Care). Dr. Finan had no insight to my problem, and didn't even call to discuss my bloodwork. He was aloof and cold and completely unlike how you would expect a professional D.O. to be. I will not go back to him or this office for many reasons. Wait time was at least 50 minutes before I saw the Doctor.
Dr. Finan was rude, unhelpful and unwilling to listen to anything. I would not recommend him. I will NEVER go back to that office. His office staff is O.K.

Burning in the wind-storms of desire, my boat sails,
I consume many fishes-- a hurricane of hails!
Recklessly riding the tsunami waves, I rush madly,
Driven by a drunken crave, to appease this scorching sea.
Enslaved by a wind of passionate tornados,
My sail's on fire, but I do not sense my woes.
Not filled nor conquered, this wanton ageless struggle,
Alas! Alas! This ship begins our huddle.
Down to the lashing waves; the mercilessly pointed rocks,
Still not replenished, by my numerous sen-so-ry stocks.
All would be gone because of shameless goals!
Grace from above has saved my sodden Soul.
Reposed and in the calm of Peace, my Lover's brought,
The peerless; birthless Source, of my eternal Heart. – Manatita.

The ephemeral raging and burning fire within
Where have you felt this shadow most?

Nice poetry manatita,
Like a fire neglected,
I burned, turned,
brute and blunt,
With his grace,
'I' has no trace,
'I' is at peace.

Well, yea...We all go through this at some point in our lives. For instance, in career, it's an endless race; rat race. Aaaaah! Rabindra Sangeet – what a delight on this day! Manatita, well done. So much power in your poetry. So much emotion. It's like sprinkling water on those who are lost between passion and desire. Sometimes we get so much engrossed in time, that it makes it arduous for us to see a big picture. The ticking of clock keeps on moving, but we the people, stay status quo like lost travellers wandering without address. I am so proud of your word-use and the vastness of this poem. It reminds of Shakespeare from the play, Julius Cesar.
"There is a tide in the affairs of men.
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat,
And we must take the current when it serves,
Or lose our ventures…" – Shakespeare.
Again, a fantastic read. Thank you for this. Om Shanti.
Nice and interesting approach Hari. Great poem. Thank you.
Sense gratification is the root cause of material existence. A true yogi is the one who controls his senses. It's a long and arduous journey. One who has surrendered to the divine is rescued from the clutches of senses.
A lovely poem with beautiful use of imagery!
I like Shaloo's reply here. So true! So true!
Interesting comments to a beautiful piece of writing....desire....hot embers where once there was a roaring blaze. :)
Ah the endless burning, desire blowing in the wind. Beautifully penned. I love the pics.
lovely poem Manatita. What a fertile mind and imagination
Reminds me of song lyrics by Larnelle Harris, "Forever running but losing this race were it not for grace." I share your debt of gratitude to Grace.
All the fire of passion and desire can be only doused by His Grace. And then there is complete peace.
Just beautiful, bro. Om Shanti!
Deep thoughts, great write.
you really do know how to express yourself.. very deep and poetic my friend :)
Great expression on a common human failing
lovely poetry! deep thoughts and insights!
Both fire and water tend to have those strong effects, which is why it takes one to vanquish the other...
Simply awesome poetry.
Wonderful poetry. :) I love the passion. Very raw. Nice pictures that you used as well.
Beautifully written! It could apply to so many obsessions and passions in life. Well expressed.
How deep and expressive! The calypso song, "Feeling hot, hot, hot!" came to mind as I was reading your poem abounding with beautiful imagery.


text: Hytera sparkles at Antwerp Diamond Museum25 Jul 2011 04:04 PM Hytera's PD785S radio was chosen by the museum to provide greater safety for staff and increase the efficiency of its security proceduresThe Antwerp Diamond Museum, situated on the Astridplein close to the Central Station, is the showpiece of the city's Diamond District. Visitors are taken through the "BriljAntwerps" story, which tells the history of the world's most fascinating diamonds, brilliantly cut by Antwerp craftsmen. Within the treasuries of the Diamond Museum a top collection of jewels are on display ranging from the 16th century to the present day.Naturally, a large number of operational security procedures have to be followed by the Diamond Museum security staff to ensure the jewels are adequately protected. Four years ago, the museum purchased 12 semi-professional walkie-talkies to improve the efficiency of communications between security staff.But in late 2010, the museum decided to invite tenders for the purchase of new walkie-talkies due to reception problems in parts of the museum and the insufficient number of handsets available.In addition, the museum also wanted the ability to send messages to the dispatcher or to the entire group of security guards at the same time, a feature that would allow security staff to discreetly communicate with each other in places where there is a requirement to keep noise levels as low as possible. The museum also wanted to be able to call a person in a meeting using a discrete vibrating alarm on the radio. A further requirement was a radio solution that provided secure, encrypted digital voice communication to prevent transmissions being intercepted.Finally, there was a requirement to provide an increased standard of protection for security guards. The museum wanted the new devices to be equipped with certain very specific technical applications, such as an emergency button and a "man-down" feature that would automatically send the caller's personal ID to the museum's security control centre.Several companies sent in a proposal with price quotations attached. The museum selected a reseller from Eurodistribution, the official distributor for Hytera products in Belgium, on the grounds that Hytera's DMR (Digital Mobile Radio) could meet all of the museum's predefined requirements. The Hytera PD785S radio was subjected to several on-the-spot tests and came up with some spectacular performance results. Kaatje Claes, security and surveillance manager at the Department of Culture, province of Antwerp, said: 'The Hytera PD785S not only meets all the required applications, it is also easy to use, not too heavy and the audio quality is very pure.'Claude Van Biervliet, sales director at Eurodistribution, said: 'One of our resellers contacted us to offer a first class product for this project. Together with the expertise and product knowledge of Eurodistribution and its reseller product specialists, we selected the Hytera PD785S for its specific features and its proven efficiency.'A spokesperson of the Eurodistribution reseller added: 'The fact that Hytera DMR devices contain a large, beautiful display makes the reading of long messages easy. Securing the Diamond Museum is a big job for us.'The semi-professional devices no longer met the museum's increased safety procedures and requirements. Now they have chosen a professional solution that allows each safety task to be carried out more efficiently.'Wireless magazine1CommentGuest28th Aug 2011Unbeleivalbe how wellwritten and informative this was Leave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...
