Yeah...I was surprised too.

If you need a E-sized drawing, you need it. Go to your Circuit City
and try to buy a E-sized printer off the shelf.

Also, some CAD programs still expect and only work with a HP pen
plotter even though HPGL is supposed to be a portable data format and
drivers are supposed to be updated.

Finally, some clients WANT pen plots...hey, its their money.

So if you have someone who NEEDS a E-sized drawing produced by a CAD
program that expects a HP pen plotter, the older HP roll around
plotters are still the ticket.

Well better buy them up on ebay. An HP E size pen plotter was $100
last I checked. I threw away two working D size pen plotters two years
ago because no one wanted them.
