   I'm not interested, but does it still work?   
      
   I bought a Smith-Corona daisy-wheel printer in 1984 to go with my Color   
   Computer.  The reviews basically said "it's a typewriter with no keyboard   
   but a serial or parallel interface".   
      
   I needed it badly at the time, since my Radio Shack DMP-100 dot matrix   
   printer was awful, too slow, too noisy, didn't do descenders, and was   
   nowhere close to "near letter quality".   
      
   But within 5 years, and I didn't use it that much, one of the plastic   
   gears had broken.   So I abandoned the printer, getting a new dot matrix   
   printer for less, but which was good enough for "near letter quality".
