Comparing Sequencher and SeqEd with or without taking price into=
account is still comparing apples to oranges. Sequencher constructs=
DNA sequence alignments (quickly) and SeqEd does not (at all). I=
used SeqEd for 1.5 years and never used it as anything more then=
a kludgy editor that allowed me to see the ABI chromatograms. I=
have used Sequencher for the past 1.5 years and have not seen any=
other program that builds consensus faster. And it allows me to=
look at all the aligned chromatograms. Except for system 7 compatibility=
SeqEd has never been updated. Sequencher seems to be updated every=
few weeks. Big company, small company. apples and oranges.
