Hi, all - especially Dave and Cecilia.
There are still a couple of questions and holes, but here it is. Please
send corrections and additions to printdel. Thanks.

Questions:
1. Under Print Service/page printing, there are conflicting statements.
ADDS is credited in one breath with dominating page printing activity, and
in the next we claim that most of their printing has left the Data Center.
Can someone clarify this?
2. Under Costs. I haven't included anything about the cost recovery system.
Dave, can you supply a sentence? or shall we just ignore it. The speaker
phone conversation we had with Roger was inconclusive.
3. Under Costs/labor costs. Peter Kelly's group, ASST, provides printing
support to the customers. True?
4. Under Costs/Capital Costs. Though post processing equipment is mentioned
as a capital cost, I don't seem to have any comments on it.
5. Maintenance Costs/servers & disks. The amount of $60,865 is the cost of
maintenance for what?
- maintenance for each disk?
- maintenance for all disks?
- the portion of total disk space associated with printing?
