How can NeXT possibly make a postscript printer to sell for $2000?
I'm afraid to find out, but I suspect that the printer has no CPU and
memory.  More likely, the printer uses the NeXT CPU and memory.  I got
suspicious when I heard that there was a specific PRINTER port for the
machine.  Anyone got the real scoop?
