The Audio-Technica AT-LP120-USB turntable gets many good reviews (not stellar, but good).
As I understand it, the turntable's internal preamplifier cannot be de-selected, preventing the user from using a higher quality external preamplifier.
(1) Is this really the case?
(2) Is there any...
I am thinking of buying an inkjet printer. In the much earlier days of these printers one could have a problem with the ink drying out.
Is this still a problem? If so, I won't buy the printer.

I have extremely low regard for the search feature in Win 7.
As others have pointed out, a search engine that takes a long time is a vast improvement over a search engine that is almost totally useless.

Or do I have it all wrong and that the fix was for Thunderbird?
Anyway, can anyone help me out?

Please educate me.
