Hello Bruce!

     Kathy sure can detail things out good huh? Anyways, her one comment that
I kept in the reply really stands out in my mind whenever I've dealt with DEK.
Don't take this wrong, because I do think that DEK makes a decent
printer...I've been a user for quite a few years, in fact, when I worked for
Comptronix we bought what I think was the fourth DEK 265 sold in the states,
and the first one on the west coast.

     But when it comes to the new stuff that they talk about, I'd add a couple
of years on to the date that they say they're going to release something
before I'd look at it...it was the same thing with this new whiz bang vision
inspection system they said they were putting in the printers. Said it could
do this and that, would be many time faster than MPM's, etc., but when the
system came out and we had one installed, all it did was look at the stencil
and tell us it was dirty....whoop-dee-do.

      Kathy, don't ya' just hate being a guinea pig?
