Hmm, I prefer the interpreter to be on the printer or be on a
separate processor.  When printing large jobs, I hear that the
cube slows down quite a bit as the image is being generated and
blasted out to the printer.  Hey, anything that will off-load the
main cpu is a plus, and I believe NeXT still thinks that way.
Perhaps in the near future, they'll introduce a Postscript
printer.
