I'd prefer info from actual users: what do you actually *do* with it? The bottom line question is: is a networked PC a reasonable alternative to buying workstation software for those applications which work well (and are cheap) on a PC? Please e-mail responses. -- Joe Smith University of Pennsylvania jes@mbio.med.upenn.edu Dept. of Biochemistry and Biophysics (215) 898-8348 Philadelphia, PA 19104-6059
