I can recommend the Apple LaserWriter.  By using Adobe's TranScript, you
can get TROFF support (real nice).  The font/graphics stuff has enough
horsepower that if somebody hasn't brought TeX up on it yet, they must
be working on it - it can be hard.

Using PostScript, you can easily write interfaces to existing graphics
package - we've done that in a couple of instances here (apollo screen
dumps, MacPaint, frame buffer images, etc) and the results are excellent.
