    Yep, we have one in my old High school's yearbook office. Can't remember
if it's a Cannon or HP engine. Three years ago we were still using the dang
thing to make out yearbook. It was slow as hell, but it had PostScript I and
it worked everytime. I think it's older than 86 though. My LaserWriter II NT
is 86' vintage. I think the Plus was about 83' or 84 IIRC.
