We have had Diconix Dijit 1 printers (non postscript, Xerox 2700 emulation)
for over a year and a half now.  We just purchased 38 of the Dijit 1/PS
(PostScript) printers.

I talked to my contact at Diconix today and he said: "How would like
your Dijit 1/PS's to run 2 maybe 3 times faster?"  He then eluded to a
new 68020 version of the PostScript engine for the printer due out
sometime late this year.

We are waiting with baited breath....
