We present Einstein spectra for 30 QSOs which indicate a large diversity in their soft x-ray slopes, unlike the uniform slopes found for AGN higher x-ray energies. The slope is related to radio properties, x-ray luminosity or possibly redshift, but we cannot definitively distinguish these possibilities.
