Last night on the local Personal Computer Show on WBAI-FM, I heard a report of a product introduced this week at PC-Expo in NYC that provides the same functionality as JetScript for a laserprinter, but is a totally software solution, and was selling at the Expo for $195! It will probably sell for around $250 or so to the general public. I didn't catch the name of the product... perhaps someone else (Ross Greenberg, are you reading this?) will fill in the blanks. As another running a shared Laserjet, It sure piqued my interest! I think a $250 solution is to be preferred to a $1600 solution if it works the same. -- Tom Betz ZCNY {bellcore,cmcl2}!cucard!dasys1!tbetz Yonkers, NY, USA 10701-2509 "Opinions? What opinions?
