We are using TeX with LN03's (under VMS), using the standard TeX system as
distributed by Stanford.   The new, improved LN03 Plus is now available, with
improved graphics support, which we need for some non-TeX uses.   We are
about to buy another LN03 - and as our suppliers tell us the "Plus" is
now available, and fully upwards compatible with the original LN03, we
plan to buy the LN03 Plus.  We may also upgrade our existing LN03's.

Does anyone have any experience with the LN03 Plus, especially with TeX?  
Is it REALLY, FULLY upwards compatible?   Or are there problems?
All advice greatfully received:  I'll summarise to the net.
