According to one dealer, this equation is true:

 HP Deskjet 500 + MacPrint + cable = DeskWriter

Does anyone know if this is true?  The price difference between the
DeskJet and Deskwriter is about $150.  Is it work the extra money to
be completely Mac compatible, or can money be saved by purchasing the
DeskJet and making it Mac compatible?

Any other advantages or disadvantages between the two printers?

I have a Mac LC, if it makes a difference.
