Last year I needed a new printer so saved for 6 months to buy a new decent one, finally got it in October a Kodak as the ink costs were brilliant, it cost £150 near enough and now they are filing bankruptcy and I won't be able to buy the flipping ink for it and haven't got the money to stock up while I can Grrrrr |

Somebody I know just gone to work for them, that'll cheer him up.
But it the way of things now for industry, too many regulations, too many hangers on, too many managers and China. |

It hasn't gone bust.
Kodak have filed for Bankruptcy protection with a credit line of £615 million from Citigroup.
Only the USA companies are affected. The rest of their global enterprise is solvent.
And you will be able to get Kodak printer ink from the internet for years. |

Yes it is, at this present time, otherwise why do they need to file for bankruptcy protection. It needs time, hell Rover could have been solvent given enough.
It's strange isn't it, the guy who is taking over from the late and great Steve Jobs, is earning some ludicrous salary, yet Steve was richer than he'll ever be, yet he was only interested in receiving a peppercorn salary and shares in the company he co-found.
They were the fastest growing company of all time, Wall Street got rid of him because he was only really interested in developing new products, rather than giving them free money, they nearly went bust.
They reappointed him, he not only saved them he totally re-invented them and took them to new heights.
Whats the betting this new guy fucks it up.
Gordon Gecko was right, you need the man in charge to own the company. |

It's basically the same as what GM did to protect them from creditors. It weirdly missed a trick when these new fangled digital cameras come out. Having said that kodak cameras suffered from over exposure in recent years but apparently their printers are great, we have one on our ebay watch list lol. |

Worst case they go bust. So what happens but a third party makes the ink cartages even cheaper. Its a no brainer you won't loose out. |

Especially as it costs only a few pounds more for new printer whatever the make. |

I know someone who worked for Kodak (in fact he is a member on here) who saw sales of 35mm film etc drop from 8 million units a year to just 800,000 in the space of a year itself because of the digital camera and the fact that Kodak didn't keep with the changing times of photography. |
