I (and most of the Salk Institute sequencers) think it is; for another
view, see:

The Journal of NIH Research, Vol 5, No 10, p 81-82

Also, for these kind of evaluations, you might check out "Biotechnology
Software", a small, infrequently published, but excellent reference for
this sort of stuff.

As I've mentioned before, one of the advantages to dealing with a small
company is that they can and do respond much more quickly than do the
giants.

There's no better glory, when it all gets harried, to be laughing in the
