       It _is_ better to have the printer doing the work. I thought that
       was the main advantage of Postscript, that you could get printers to
       do lots of the grunt work for you. Otherwise, why not use TeX for
       document preparation?

Well, you can use both types of printers on the NeXT.  

TeX and Postscript are completely different.

And quit making definitive statements when you are obviously just
stating your opinion about which type of laser printer is better.
