From: Hans Mittelmann, aihdm@asuacad.bitnet, (na.mittelmann)

The Mathematics Department at Arizona State University will very soon
acquire a new open (networked) scientific word processing system with
laser printers and text setting capabilities.
I am thankful for any recommendations, suggestions, information and
experiences you are willing to share with me. We may have to make a
decision later this week. Thanks very much.
