I'm sure no expert on graphics but the business principles are alittle more
straight forward to me. It seems I recall somebody mentioning in the distant
past that NewTek got great results by using a $40,000 camera. For marketing
purposes this sounds like a good idea. I'm sure an implied disclaimer is 
something along the lines of "Results may vary due to hardware used". As far
as I know the Surgeon General hasn't required any warnings yet!
