To start off our disaster week gadgets, we chose a Dell Multifunction Laser Printer. Why would we chose a laser printer/fax/scanner/copier?
The Geeks believe the first step in becoming prepared for a disaster is to make electronic copies of important documents. The Dell 1815dn allows you to scan documents and send straight to an email address such as a gmail account without even being hooked to a computer. By sending scanned digital copies of your documents to a gmail type account, you can access your scanned documents from any Internet-accessible computer even if the disaster destroys your paper documents.
