No, its not a speed demon (but neither is it terribly slow). But that's nothing that more powerful chips and more RAM won't cure. This is true of most things. But if you're looking at an imaging _model_ then IMHO having on-screen exactly what will go to the printer is unbeatable. Display PostScript gives you that. Quickdraw does not. -- - Stefano Pagiola Food Research Institute, Stanford University spagiola@frinext.stanford.edu (NeXTMail encouraged)
