I have both Ventura and PageMaker installed on an NCR PC8 which is networked
on a LAN with shared postscript laser printers.  In terms of performance,
PageMaker is almost unusable.  It takes several minutes just to spool the
postscript output on the workstation which must then be transferred to the
network spooler and finally accross a 9600 baud serial link to the printer.
Comparatively, Ventura and GEM provide interactive response and are used   
exclusiviely by the some twenty odd net users.  The output workstation spooler
can be disabled in Ventura.  There may be a way to do this in WINDOWS too but
the intolerable delay in spooling the output to the network would still exist.

These opinions are my own.
