Hey Rich, for your benefit I'll rephrase an earlier posting. 1. I digitized a photo of my daughter with the Migraph Hand Scanner. 2. I printed the .IMG file from a Mega 2 to an SLM804 and it took less than 1.5 minutes. 3. I printed the same file from an AT at 10 MHz with an 80287 also at 10 MHz (overall NORTON SI = 12.4). and the pic took just over 44 minutes printing from GEM Paint. <<< Yeah, 44 MINUTES >>> The difference is due to transmission speed. Hey, if you really believe in this 11 ppm, 8 ppm, 6 ppm stuff, that lakefront property in Canada's Arctic is still for sale and has your name written all over it!
