[net.unix-wizards] typesetter info wanted

ss (08/04/82)

I am thinking about a typesetter for our 4.1BSD unix(tm) system.  But I
know next to nothing about typesetters and their capabilities.  Would
anyone care to give me the nickel tour through typesetter land, please?
I am interested in makers of VAX/unix-compatible hardware, prices,
capabilities, and general info about capabilities, why would I want
one, etc.

Please respond to me, not the net, and I will digestify, etc.
(Does writing this actually make any difference?)

Thanks in advance (as usual),
