    My Wife runs a very successful typing service from home using (mostly)
an IBM Selectric II typewriter.  She has now reached the point where she has
to turn down business because of the limitations imposed by using a
typewriter.  It is obvious now that with a computer and a good printer that
she could continue to expand her business since a lot of what she types
would (form letters etc.) take far less time using a computer.
    Since I have extensive Unix experience and am very comfortable with troff
(macros etc.) I am biased toward a Unix based setup.
    What I need is some hardware/software recommendations.  I am familiar with
laser-printers, various Unix boxes (7300, 3b1, 6300+, ...) and would appreciate
hearing from anyone who has put together a similar "publishing" setup.
    Thanks!!
