As long as your dissertation doesn't require graphics, you can be up and 
running with a laser printer very quickly.

Most (but not all, so check before you buy or rent) lasers have settings for 
IBM and/or Epson emulation printer input.

So select this option on the laser, use any Word Writer 5 compatable printer 
file driver (IBM or Epson), and use any of the printer interfaces to connect 
the laser to your C64.

My preference is the Xetec Super Graphic Jr.  However ALL the interfaces on 
the market today perform very well.

For graphics, `fancy' fonts, and the like GEOS is the way to go with a laser 
printer.
