Once you recover from the wine-tasting style of the names and descriptions 
(Emergency: is there a hair dresser in the house? A florist? An interior 
decorator? We need someone to translate!) you might happen to notice the 
ominous lack of purples in this list. Not only is this a sea-change for 
popular colors (all those purple items at WalMart should be on markdown 
soon), it will be a relief to Epson inkjet users (see; I'm still on topic) 
since Epsons couldn't print a good purple, even  if you gave them a 
headstart, with lavender paper to print it on. Besides, if this press release 
had been aimed at this audience it would have included Lab values for each of 
the colors.
