	This all started out as a good idea (to obtain information about
writing/reading VME bus) but now it has snowballed into a big headache.

	It seems as though some people have taken my comments about
the 3rd party software for the IT-150 boards ALL WRONG.  That software
in particular is Wyndham Hannaway's Image Processing system (WHIP).
I never said (or meant to) that the software or his support was completely
inadequate.  On the contrary, I am greatly appreciative of Wyndham and his
efforts to help us get our start in image proccessing; without him we
would not be nearly as far as we currently are now.

	What I had said was that I have developed the need for greater 
(stranger) specialization than what his software currently does.  In
addition, I don't really see why he would want to specialize in the way that
we are because ours is one in a million.

	So, before we all go running off and telling other people
tales that aren't quite true, why don't we e-mail or even phone the person
to find out what his true feelings and NOT jump to conclusions.
(I just received a phone call from Wyndham telling me he heard I was 
 "dogging" him on the network)

	At any rate, thanks again to all who responded to my question and
I hope everyone who requested the compilation of information received it.
If not, e-mail me again and I will send it to you again.
