Really?  What was the print technology on the WriteImpact.  Can I assume from the
name that it's a really high-resolution dot-matrix??  I was all convinced that I
wanted to buy a DeskWriter, but now I'm not so sure...  Anybody else see it?  Any
ideas?  Are you wondering why this message is rambling?  (Simple:  the mailer on
media-lab is stupid.  If you include more text than you compose, it rejects the
message.  So in an attempt (?) to cut down on use of the bandwidth, they actually
increase it when you need to include large files. :-(  Any fixes, anyone?  (I'll
be talking to someone here about it soon, but if there's a command I'm missing,
yell))
