What's an imagesetter?

 Prints to film. used for publishing. you use a pro page layout app, lay out
the pages, print to laser printers to verify that everythings ok, print to
film, burn each page to a plate (four plates for full color, cyan, magenta,
yellow, black), slap the plates on the press, print the doc. Newer
imagestters print directly to plates. They’re also more expensive.

If you’re carefull you can get away with using older systems for quite some
time. you just have to br careful.

I know it's tempting providence to say so, but I don't _think_ I've _ever_ had an attack I didn't detect, back to DOS days. (I have had one door-to-door conman, and got _close_ to falling for a telephone one in the last month or so.)[]

ideapads are the ‘home’ units, thinkpads are the ‘business’ units.

Ah, thanks for the information. (For my minimal requirements, it's been fine so far.)
