Yes it is 68000 machine language. I would appreciate it if someone would
email me the eexec portions of the laser prep file, as I don't have a MAC
to get it from.  I'd like to look at the 68000 code a bit.  I'm currently
tearing Cexec stuff appart, and documenting how it works.  I'm looking for
all the cexec stuff I can get my hands on.

I suspect that Apple does these sorts of things, to encourage people to
buy THIER laserprinter, rather than someone elses.  I'm sure that is why
the original laserwriters didnot have a centronics port...etc...
