Hewlett Packard, Canon, Epson Printers

How much bullshit will the consumer have to deal with in the future?  What is wrong with Hewlett Packard, Canon and Epson?  Recently while searching for a new computer printer from Hewlett Packard (HP), Canon or Epson I noticed that most of the printers now do not come with a cable to connect the printer to a computer!  How absurd is this?  They are selling you a product that is completely useless technically, because you then have to buy a part somewhere (USB or Ethernet cable) to get it to work.  This is my logic.  I assume their logic is they are saving the $3 it takes for them to put a USB cable in the box.  And if you go to a Best Buy to get one of these printers they then try to sell you a $30 USB cable. $30 for a 6-foot USB cable is ridiculous!  Hewlett Packard, Canon and Epson management should be completely ashamed.  I talked to a Hewlett Packard representative while shopping and told him it was completely absurd.  He just laughed.  Next I suppose the printers won’t come with a plug, which you then will have to buy separate.
