˙˙00˙ ˙00˙01˙03˙01The SIBA Fall-Off˙00 ˙ ˙ ˙03˙02PUH / AGONY ˙02˙01˙01˙00˙ ˙01˙The following text is a recording of what took place when Puh went to buy a printer at the local SIBA shop (Billhälls, Sisjön). ˙ ˙00 Puh ˙01Siba dude ˙02- Hum, hello, I'd like to have a look at that Canon BJ-200ex. As a matter of fact, I'd like to but it. You have a fair price, you know that? ˙01- Yep, it's cheap, only 1200 SKR. Here is the package. Would you like the Windows'95, Windows 3.X or the MacOS version? ˙02- Well, that does not really matter. ˙01- Excuse me? ˙02- Well, it is meant for my Amiga. ˙01- Your A-M-I-G-A? Well, pal, sorry to disappoint you, but this beauty does not work on an Amiga. Nobody uses that computer anymore. ˙02- I'm sure it works, you just sell it to me, and I'll take care of the rest. ˙01- You are not listening to me. It will not work, and we can therefore not give you a money-back option here. ˙02- I heard, you know. Do we have a deal, then? ˙01- Sure, but as I said, IT WILL NOT WORK, AND YOU WON'T GET ANY GUARANTEE, EITHER. I suggest you find an Amiga printer somewhere else. It won't be easy, I gather. ˙02- Whatever you say. Can I have that printer now? ˙01- Yup, here is it. 1200 bucks, then. Thanks. But don't come and say I did not warn you! You will not get any help at our support-line, as there is no Amiga printer program developed. [COLOUR02- Sure. Thanks. ˙01Puh then went home, booted his beloved Blizzard-enhanced system, and took a look in the 156-page-long book entitled "How to Configure the Canon BJ-200ex into Windows'95". He realized he did not understand a word, so he gave it up pretty soon. Instead, he chose the Canon printer driver that was provided with the Workbench, loaded his original version of Final Writer (he's honest, that Puh), loaded one of his Oepir Risti articles and chose PRINT. Guess if he was pleased to see that the printer printed his text in the best way imaginable; guess if the was happy to learn about the SIBA fall-off. ˙01
