• Very good to see a local company doing so well and actually entering Asia. Some great opportunities lie in Cambodia and Vietnam especially for printed items like printed flags and printed gazebos etc as well as labelling and signage. ...
• Gentlemen, It's been brought to my attention, not least by the man himself, that this report on Wayne should have included some recognition of Andy as the previous editor of Print21. Fair enough! Let me correct that now and express my appreciation for the great and sterling work and support put into the title by Andy in his two long stints as editor over the years. It's been great and we've enjoyed ourselves not only as editor and publisher, but also as joint hosts of the famous Print21 Ipex barbeques in England and the Drupa party in Düsseldorf, which were mostly Andy's idea.

In the shift over to Yaffa Media the editor's role changed and was not something Andy felt he wanted to pick up. Hence our engagement with Wayne. Andy is still with Print21 as writer and contributor. While the Dove and Olive here in Surry Hills may not be the Old Fitzroy in Woolloomooloo, I trust we'll continue to enjoy for many years the fruits of friendship and of graphic arts publishing over the odd quiet beer. ...

But the publishers keep them going for the same reason the Yellow Pages are printed in their thousands, to milk the advertisers revenue. I am sure the circ. figures can be made to look great, but readership and ad response won't match. Online Yes. Print, No. ...
• Vale Andy McCourt! PIAA wishes Andy McCourt well, as he leaves a great legacy for Wayne to build on. We look forward to continuing to collaborate with Andy on new projects. The print industry has been blessed to have such capable editors for the trade press. Congratulations Wayne! ...
• Oce did that 10 years ago and went bust. They didn't realise how much they relied on the monthly rental income stream and how inflexible third party leasing companies are when you want to upgrade mid term. The financing arm is usually the most profitable side of the business. High interest rate to customers, low rates for them and if the customer goes bust you get you equipment back and at the end of the contract you get your gear back. How often do you hear "you should rent it, who wants a 5 year old copier" Then find out it gets "refurbed" and put back out in the field ...
