You probably already know this, but HP also offers the extra fonts that
come with the LaswerWriter NT.  The set of 7 styles retails for $395.  These
are outline fonts that can be scaled to any point size. (up to 250pt)

I'm curious.  Why do you need large point sizes for the basic four fonts
(Times, Helvetica, Courier, and Symbol) when the DeskWriter already provides
SCALABLE fonts for these?  Is it so you can display large points on the screen 
with high quality results?
