    Thinking about it, 2pps is still pretty good by today's standards for a lot of copiers. I mean, it's not often you see 120ppm.

    The head monk (is that a Father?) was my uncle Bill, although he went by the name Willie!

    A great ad in that it does everything an ad should do:

    1) It gets and keeps the viewer's attention

    2) It brings a story (in this case, with humor) that will make the viewer remember it.

    3) It clearly identifies its sponsor

    4) It gives the viewer a motive to buy from the sponsor (i.e., the potential of the copier).

    I also worked for HP. The only printer they ever had that was any good was the Hawk HP LaserJet 9065mfp (Q3632A). It was a warmed over Konika with a different GUI. Carly fumbled the program like everything else she did at HP. HP doesn't have a vision of what they have developed, or a vision of the future.

    Did your dad do the Xerox 4000 Colodny commercial too?  It won lots of awards. I used to work on the 4000 for Xerox and was on the team that turned the 9200 (Ardry) into the 9700 Laser Printer.
