A Swedish CS research institute, SISU, are planning to buy an
Apple LaserWriter. To my knowledge, it is available from at
least two sources: Our local Apple dealer supplies the LaserWriter,
and Adobe will license them to use the TranScript software, OR,
the Swedish distributor for Sun Microsystems offers a "Sun LaserWriter"
package, which to their knowledge is identical to the Apple+TranScript.

Now my questions: Is the Sun LaserWriter different from Apple
LaserWriter + TranScript? In what way? 

If you find this question out-of-date or unheard-of, please tell me so.
If there is just one simple choice for any sensible person, please tell
me what it is. The information does not seem to be available here.
