Luckily, only the freshman CS programming courses and other programming courses (in math and eng. depts.) have to put up with it. The print quality on both the Letterwriter 100 and DECwriter sucks, also. At ULowell, if you're lucky enough to be an upperclassman, you actually get to have an account on their VAX 11/780, running only VMS (no Unix), which uses Letterwriter 100's as printers in the computer room( they have two.) Somebody took the black covers off, though. **VMS, VAX are trademarks of Digital Equipment Corporation **Unix is a trademark of Bell Laboratories. -- Bob Lynch USENET: ...{decvax,linus}!wivax!lynch USSNAIL: Wang Institute lynch%Wang-Inst@Csnet-Relay Tyng Rd.
