Due to my tight budget, I am more interested in the version from Personal TEX. However, I am wondering if it would be worthwhile getting Addison-Wesley's driver for the IBM Graphics Printer - it seems to offer a little more flexibility. If I were to go this route, I would like to have the option of getting more fonts, such as Personal TEX's MF Medley fonts, at a later time. I would appreciate comments on my plans, espe- cially if they are very bad ones. I have read BYTE's review. -- Samuel A.
