FargoDTC 400 Card Printer
We have several card printers at work that we use for printing business passes and seasonal access cards. All of our printers are DTC 400's and they really are very good. Granted, we do have the occasional problem but in general, they are reliable, print to a high quality and are very fast. Not only does this enhance productivity, but it also allows to portray a professional image to the general public when they visit our site and allows us to encode our cards to monitor peoples movements around the site.

William ...
Advantages: Funny, touching, dramatic, quirky - just plain brilliant Disadvantages: Quite a bit of swearing and violence; you might not "get it"
Fargo is the sixth movie by film-making brothers Joel and Ethan Coen, who between them wrote, directed and produced this, just like most of their films. I?m not that familiar with them, having only seen O Brother Where Art Thou (which I really liked) and The Big Lebowski (which was ok), but Fargo is considered by many as their finest film, and a modern American classic.

It sets the scene from the very start, with beautiful photography of snowy North Dakota/Minnesota, and an eerie landscape where you can?t distinguish between the white of the snow and the white of the sky.
We are introduced to Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy), a car salesman who is in need of money, and quickly. To ...
