    Decent Printer and Page Layout Software

    My mom wants me to help her spec out a computer system she can use to run a nonprofit that she is the co-director of. She doesn't think she really needs a color printer, but can't decide wether it would be better to get a decent color printer to be able to print brochures. The printer I think...

    I have a very reliable computer, my iMac. And it's been acting very funny of late. A few days ago my I came home one night and my mom started talking about how one of her work documents was "eaten line by line from the bottom up," which I took for heresy because I messed around on a document...
