Wild and crazy alternative:

	Have a small computer for text processing and hire someone
	to network the two systems.  Thus, a PDP 11 or small VAX
	can be used for real text editing thus improving overall
	productivity by several orders of magnitude and the network
	can be used to transfer files, "submit jobs", etc.

	This technique has been used, more or less successfully,
	for years and years.  See PWB Unix (Programmer's Workbench
	UNIX) for a late example of this.
