I'm not using color, but it's not that expensive. The QMS recently dropped
in price and it was under $10,000 to begin. Also the HP Paint Jet, or
whatever it's official Mac name is, is only around $2,000 to $3,000. But
I don't know how ink jet works on transparencies.

In general, keep an eye out for this emerging field. It sounds like its
beginning to move. NEC has one out now, or at least they're advertising.
In general the articles I've read say that competition is heating up
and prices are coming down.

P.S. YOu can call Software that Fits in Texas (find in a Mac magazine ad).
They carry the QMS and I believe they used to sell it for $7999 before
the price cut. Now they won't print the price and want you to call.
