I've recently had a chance to play with Addison-Wesley's TeXtures, a TeX for the Macintosh, on a Mac II at work. I can get it from the bookstore here for a good price. Nothing on the box, however, tells me what kind of system is required. I have a Mac+ at home, 1Mb of memory, with a 800k external floppy drive, no hard drive. The only printer I have at home is an old, original Imagewriter. Can Textures comfortably run on such a system? Can it print to the Imagewriter, and how is the text quality? Laserwriters are available for final versions, but I would like to make drafts at home. Reply by e-mail, please. -- Paul J.
