    In reply to Chinese TV Ink Ad Is Just Beautiful to Watch
    I'm sure it's been stated before, but I guffaw at the fact that CCTV can be both China Central Television and Closed Circuit Television, both being geared towards reporting and surveillance.

    Tre cool commercial, liquid/smoke CG effects are always amazing and always incredibly difficult to do.

    I work retail and all Kodak printers, with the exception of the small photo printers, are crap. We've had so many returns on these with complaints about smearing and having to replace broken printheads about every 6 months. It seems to me they skimped on the printer to lower ink prices for this campaign.

    @Needz: I tend to concur, having had some experience with Kodak printers. I think the problem is that people think of printing photos, and the Kodak name inspires confidence. It's a mistake to equate Kodak's knowledge of photography and film developing to printing color images with inkjet technology. For now I vastly prefer Epson and HP inks and printers for the closest to true photo quality. They cost more, but the results are worth it if you want decent photos that don't smear or fade.

    The ink is cheap. The demos I have seen look about the same as other inkjets. ALL inkjets have a common issue. If you do not use them regularly, ink dries and clogs the print head, at least on the Epson, Canon, and HP units I have owned. That dates back to the first HP DeskJet 500 I had which used EITHER a 3 color OR a black cart. When you replace the rather expensive HP cartridges you get a new print head. on the others, if the head is clogged, you might get lucky, or you can buy a new printer or print head. Kodak can provide a new print head. Basically inkjet technology has its limits.

    I have no need for the printer but I will say that I do wonder why Kodak keeps reusing names. I mean how many products have used Kodacolor? I mean Ektar has gone to lenses and different types of film before being reused again by their newest film.

    They better not reuse the name Kodachrome though ...

    It somehow manages to seem somehow exploitative (the bikinis were necessary why?) without mustering up any titillation whatsoever (all that skin and they made music with only handshakes and high fives?). I suppose that can be considered a remarkable achievement, at least in the sense that I felt a need to remark on it.

    @jdale: It's because he knew it was going to be extremely boring and not as exciting as it was hyped to be. Having chicks in bikinis made us kind of look passed it but obviously he didn't have enough chicks cause we still saw the flaws.
