Well, I don't know where you get your information from, Jeff, but I
talked to the marketing manager of HP's San Diego Division, who
released the IIP, and he assured me that HP was currently working 
on the PS cartridge for the new IIP as one of the logical followups
to their new PostScript cartridge for the Series IID printer.  Knowing 
the people involved and their committment to the Macintosh marketplace, 
it'll most certainly happen.  Expect it first quarter of 1990.
