Subject: NeWS Ports?

Can anyone summarize what News Ports are anticpated, beside the Sun
itself. It seems like I have heard there is a PC port and an Atari
port, though I may have this all wrong.

What about a port to the Macintosh? Since there is already a facility for
getting PostScript out of standard Mac applications (by intercepting the
output mean for the Laserwriter), it would seem that News could be used
to do very nice output previews.
