------------------------------

I have a friend who is thinking along similar lines, except her
application is more involved. If you get some help in your request,
please let me know. 

My friend wants to get a PC for her church (for the usual office related
things: wordprocessing, mailing lists, etc.); but she also wants to be
able to drive something better than a dot matrix printer. Needless to
say, a big laser printer is out (for funding reasons), so she is
thinking along the lines of an Apple Laserwriter. The problem is she
wants to do rare book translations/transliterations and requires a
capability of printing a Classic Greek font (as opposed to a modern
Greek font which they don't like).

Can anybody recommend a hardware/software combo that is cheap, will give
a WYSIWYG display, and letter qualityhardcopy output? Would appreciate
cost info if available.

Thanks,

Earle Kyle
