I know this has been discussed before on the net, but for those
of us still trying to make up our minds--why a DeskWriter
rather than a StyleWriter?  I am not overly concerned about
either the price difference or the speed difference, and I
will probably never need AppleTalk, so my major concerns are
quality, reliability, and ease of use (in a household consisting
of mechanical idiots).
