We are not yet sure what hardware/software we are going to buy, but it will be something along the lines of 2 or 3 Mac Pluses and/or SEs, 1 hard disk of some sort, 1 LaserWriter Plus [or cheaper compatible?], WriteNow or MacWrite, and PageMaker. I am extremely interested in hearing from people who have experience with this sort of transition or who are using this sort of system now.
