Message-ID: <20698@uflorida.cis.ufl.EDU> Date: 7 Aug 89 19:43:56 GMT Reply-To: pff@beach.cis.ufl.edu (Pablo Fernicola) Distribution: usa Organization: UF CIS Department Lines: 11 I want to buy a DeskWriter and I noticed that the DeskWriter is about $200.00 more than the DeskJet PLUS. Is it only here? Is the dealer trying to get more money from Mac users than from PC users? or is the DeskWriter really more expensive than the DeskJet PLUS? Also the font collection is about $280.00 and font cartridges are $66.00. I thought this printer did not use font cartridges, anybody knows what they are for (aren't all fonts in software?)? -- pff@beach.cis.ufl.edu Pablo Fernicola - Machine Intelligence Laboratory - UF "That has nothing to do with computers; it is software."
