Ok, after wasting yet another hour juggling around by a single pixel
inorder to try and get the final image to be precisely what it is 
supposed to be....

How about a software emmulation of Display Postscript on the Mac?

Is this possible? 

Can Adobe produce this as the obvious step up from ATM?

Would this require a whole 3rd party OS?

Could Apple produce "optional" ROMs which included Display PS
for those willing to pay for it.

Even if this option were painfully slow, it would be invaluable for
the final proofing of documents.

Does Apple have plans to create a screen version of TrueImage?

Will we have to wait until Apple replaces the Mac to get real
fidelity in WYSIWYG?

Are there any NeXT users out there with insights upon how good the
NeXT implementation of Display Postscript is?

..........Well, I think that's enough concepts to bandy about for
one afternoon, let the discussion BEGIN!
