Re: [Digital BW] Re: Any New 2200 BW for PC's?

This is a good solution.  I am a Pc person (working on both platforms). 
 This "print server Mac"
may not be fast, may not be loaded.  All the manipulations you will do 
on your main station.
Just printing software like Bowhouse - set up on the Mac.  
But how is it possible to without installing a Mac version of PS on it?
I am curious how you might make it work if you have all your expensive 
software on Pc.
Can you guide me through?
I would appreciate advice.  Used "white and blue" Mac G3 - I believe 
suitable for the task you may
buy for around $300.  It's a worth considering option.
Jack
