  • Canon MP190 Review

    These days everyone is tight on both office space and budgets when it comes to office equipment, the Canon MP190 is an excellent multifunction printer that addresses both of these concerns. We have been using one of these units in our Waitsfield store for some months now and have all been impressed with the quality of the printing, scanning and even wireless printing.

    I was skeptical at first about this printer, so I put it through a few tests, including scanning. I was pleasantly surprised that even with physical objects (such as mouse pads) the scanning quality was excellent. The scanning feature was quick and easy, the software that comes with the printer easily integrates into iPhoto for images, documents are easily saved as PDF’s or sent directly to your documents folder. Printing of documents is fast, even when your copying a document.

    For just under $70 this unit is a great value, even the consumables are reasonably priced at $19.99 for the black ink and $24.99 for the color cartridge with estimated yields of up to 500 pages depending on coverage. The inks for the unit feature canons 100 year ink technology, so your photos and documents won’t fade over 
time. For a limited time we are offering this printer free after mail in rebate if you purchase it at the same time you buy a new computer with us, so hurry up and grab one before supplies run out.

  • *Greetings!*

    Our long Vermont winter has finally come to an end and summer has made its presence known in the Mad River Valley of Vermont. Our staff enjoys diverse hobbies during the summer months that take advantage of all the Green Mountain State has to offer, such as motorcycle and horseback riding, camping and frisbee walks with the dogs down to the river. We’ve decided to enter a float in Warren’s 4th of July parade this year, so stay tuned next month for all the details!

    Small Dog’s Purchasing Department has been very busy the last couple of weeks and has scored some great deals on discontinued and refurbished gear from Apple. One of my favorite items to come in during the last two weeks is the 2008 500GB Time Capsule. We are now offering this for $199 which is $100 less than the cost of the 2009 model that replaced it. The amazing thing about the Time Capsule is that it is a wireless router and 500GB drive in one.

    Better yet, for users running OS X 10.5 or later, one can back up automatically with Time Machine. If you have been putting off buying an external drive (or even worse, not doing regular backups at all), now is your chance!

    Stop by our Waitsfield store and say Hi!
