I want to buy a light-duty letter quality printer for word-processing
(thesis, paper typing) duty.  Slow speed is not a problem.  Serial
interface is preferred (parallel acceptable).  I am considering:

	Brother International Correctronic 50
	Silver Reed 400/500/550
	Juki 6100
	Dynax DX-15
	Smith Corona TPI/TPII

I'd appreciate any recommendations/personal experiences/name of other
systems anyone would care to offer.  Respond my mail and I'll summarize
to the net.  Note: the Brother machine is an electronice daisy-wheel
typewriter available through a local discount house (Best Co.) for
~$380.  A ~$160 serial+parallel interface is available.  Use as a
standalone typewriter seems to me to be an advantage.  Does anyone have
information as to the nature of this (rather expensive!) interface?
Thanks...
