I would be interested if someone would post a summary of the new Amiga DOS 2.0
support for printers. Actually I'd like to read a summary of all its new modes
and features but I'd be greedy if I asked that. :-)

I haven't gotten close enough to an Amiga 3000 down here in Oz to be able to
take a look for myself. Some small thing to do with them not being available
yet. :-)

yours truly,
Lou Cavallo.
