What is CAP?  Where can I get it?  Does anyone else know of a way to
connect Apple Macs to HP machines?  Is there a way to print from UNIX
to an Apple laser printer?  We currently are file serving MACs to a
uVAXII, and find it terribly slow :-).  I sure would like another
HP capability to add to the DECstation3100 vs HP835 war...
