Hi,

I am thinking about buying a laser printer. The only applications I
will be using it for are word processing (Word 3.0.1), Drawing
(MacDraw 1.9.5), and spreadsheets (Excel 1.5). I am thinking about
purchasing Apple LaserWriter II SC (with the option of later upgrading
to a NX). Any comments on this? Some questions I have include:

1) How will a non-Postscript printer fit into the proposed 7.0
operating system?

2) How is Quick-draw vs. PostScript for the above applications? Will
the SC look professional?

3) Can the SC be upgraded memory-wise? Can additional memory be added
when it is upgraded to a NX?

3.5) Do you have a SC? If so, I would like to here your experences
with it.

4) I will be selling an ImageWriter II (only used for a couple of
months).  Any idea of a good price to sell it for?

If there is interest, I will sumerize and post to the net.

Thanks in advance!

Ben Dubin.
