I have been using an HP IIP on my Apple GS for the past 6 months, and have
just about taught the thing to dance.. It does beautiful work..And works
well with the GS.. Yes, It can do Postscript, but you have to purchase
it extra in addition to the machine, and you will have to purchase at
least 2 megs of additional memory (which I suggest even if you do not
use postscript.) The best price I have seen recently was about $850 in
a recent copy of the bay area edition of Computer Currents. So pick up
a copy and check out the ads. I do not remember which advertiser had that
price..
