PDP introduced an accelerator card which works along with their PostScript
cartridge. Has anyone tried it? It plugs into a LaserJet memory slot and it
has an Intel i960 (I think) on it.

Anyway, it got a bad review from PC Week because it failed to print two of
three test pages. I wonder if the problem was indigenous to the cartridge
and had nothing to do with the accelerator. Any comments?
