Before you put too much work into NeWSprint 1.0, dump it.  It is too buggy.
Get the 2.0 upgrade, you'll be alot happier.  While you may not find a part
number for the upgrade in the Sun Express catalog, there is one and they
know it.  So will any of the Sun resellers.  Be sure and get the upgrade,
since it is cheaper than getting it from scratch.  Even though it is an
upgrade, you get the complete package.
