Hello,

I am setting up a high thoughput DNA sequencing lab and was considering 
using
robotics for the DNA preparation and sequencing reaction chemistry.  We 
are
currently looking into the Qiagen robots for DNA preparation and the PE 
ABI
877 integrated thermal cycler for the sequencing chemistry set up.  Does
anyone have experience with these machines ?  Are they good for what I 
have
described as my needs ?  What other options are there for DNA prep robots 
and
sequencing chemistry robots ?  Is there a single machine that can do it 
all ?
 Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I will post a summary of the
results later.  You can send me the response at nelson_t at bms.com, or post 
it
as a response on the newsgroup. 

Thanks,
