Hello again.  A question:  Since I'm probably going to buy a new printer soon,
I need to know a few things about the DeskWriter:

o  Is there a spooler NOW (I don't want to hear about 7.0)?  I've heard that
   there isn't one...
o  How fast is this machine in draft mode (the 150 horiz-dpi)?  mins/page?
o  How does it compare in cost/page to a laser?  (In view of the new, "cheap"
   laser printers)
o  Are they (HP) going to come out with an updated one anytime soon (I don't
   want to be stuck with a just-superceded machine (like my HP 28-C).

Any general coments are welcome, as well.  Please email, and I'll summarize.

Many thanks in advance!!!

--Mike
