I should expand on this a bit.

I'm not so interested in using gimp as my image processing engine
(yet), so that facet of my brain was thinking about a platform where I
could use Photoshop and the gimp-print drivers, which was Windows.

Now that OS X is on the scene, it's a different story.  Photoshop and
the Gimp side by side printing through a variety of drivers.  Editing
in Xemacs (wheee.....), using all of my unix tools.  All I need is the
OS X version of the piezography driver.
