	The other important thing to note about the next is that it
doesn't come with a postscript laser, just a regular 400dpi laser. All
the postscript --> laser calculations are done internally. This leads
to incredible slowdowns. When I was printing a page (a ps doc) I had
to wait just to type into the unix CLI. The letter wouldn't appear
immediately! That is SLOW!
