Geoff,

Sorry to hear about that. Every manufacturer has bad demos and evals that
don't go well no matter what and just seem cursed.

Thanks to Gary Coates for supporting the TIG.

We had a Scratch system on trial at Molinare.
It didn't work, despite hours and hours and different "demo" units
installed. We bought a second Baselight. Graham Holton, our colourist,
thinks Yugo's are a pile of cr*p.

My mum always said "buy cheap, buy twice". She's right.

Ruskin put it more eloquently thus..
   "There is nothing in the world that some man cannot make a little worse
and sell a little cheaper, and he who considers price only is that man's
lawful prey"

(snip) >>The fact that studios are buying them means nothing to the TV
>>commercial Post world. Yes, they're cheap... so was a Yugo.

Well said, Craig
