H200 and Staples paper- the winning commbination.

PS I just acquired 10000, shares each of Staples and GBC. That means 
that everybody purchasing those products invests in my future!  Mike

emailed me, just the other day, who is using a personal  computer to 
monitor and control both the temperature and the speed of a modified 
laser fuser assembly. I think he said that by using a very low speed, 
he can laminate  patterns onto pcboards with just one pass through 
the fuser rollers.
