Hanes Product Catalog

**jcanavera** · 03-12-2008, 03:44 PM

I'm in the process of ordering some logoed shirts for our department and ran across a Hanes product catalog. Looks like Airstream is a featured component of this year's campaign. I wonder whose vintage unit this is? It has an interesting dent in the rear end. Note the pages were in color but I only have a black and white scanner here in my office.

Hi Jack,

Thanks for the heads up, but inquiring minds want to know, where did you get a black and white only scanner?

Hi Steve,

That could be, but I was pretty sure it was a DEC Rainbow.

It's actually a large Sharp printer, copier, fax, and scanner. Each department has one. Unfortunately they all scan in black and white.

Hi Jack,

I guessed that might be the case. I can understand that it only copies, faxes, and prints in black and white, but surely it couldn’t have cost much to let it scan in color, just look at the cost of a standalone color scanner today.

Thanks for taking the factious comments about your system in the good spirit they were intended.

I really didn’t think you were running a Rainbow. Speaking of which, in our last building move, I tossed out copies of CPM on Rainbow floppy and a Rainbow floppy of WordStar for CPM.

Thanks again for the info!
