I've recently had a chance to play with Addison-Wesley's TeXtures, a
TeX for the Macintosh, on a Mac II at work.  I can get it from the
bookstore here for a good price.  Nothing on the box, however, tells
me what kind of system is required.  I have a Mac+ at home, 1Mb of
memory, with a 800k external floppy drive, no hard drive.  The only
printer I have at home is an old, original Imagewriter.  Can Textures
comfortably run on such a system?  Can it print to the Imagewriter,
and how is the text quality?  Laserwriters are available for final
versions, but I would like to make drafts at home.  Reply by e-mail,
please.
