One thing I would be willing to wait for would be color output.  I can't
afford $9000 for a color Postscript machine, but I could probably spring
for a $500 PaintJet.  There is a contributed PaintJet driver in the
GhostScript code.  Come on, student hackers, doesn't anyone else wonder
what those intruiging color selection panels do?  Doesn't anyone want to
see the FractalTrees or Mandelbrot output in color?  

This brings up a related issue.  Has anyone tried the berkeley tiff tools
on NeXT color tiffs?  Perhaps we could be converting them to gifs and
seeing something on the nearest SVGA or Amiga box.

Steve.
