I currently own an Okidata 83A printer which I like very much.
However, I was in a computer store and saw the much-ballyhooed
(by Okidata, anyway) model 93 and was struck by the fact that the
only discernable difference seems to be the nameplate on the outside,
and some invisible electronics inside.  Could it be that the difference is
merely a ROM change??  Doesn anyone out there know anything about
the possibility of upgrading an 83A to a 93 by something as simple
as that??  Any help would be appreciated.  Please respond directly
as I don't seem to be on the list any more.

	Thanks,
