Heh ok.
Welp, I'm almost impressed with the GUI builder. It at least gives you
an idea of the layout if you don't have alot of experience with widget's
yet.
Last I've played with it, I had some difficulties getting the design
and the ultimate widget to look exactly alike, but it's definately a
good step.
However, I think the greatest addition is the new data types (for me at
least). 16-bit unsigned integer, 32-bit unsigned long
integer, 64-bit long integer, and 64-bit unsigned long integer.
Invaluable to me anyway.
Other than that, I extensively use the ActiveX plugin stuff, and I'm
hoping a few bugs have been fixed for 5.2. (But.. it may not happen, oh
well).
Personally... the next huge release to me will be multi-processor
support.
Returning fingers to crossed.

You are right, Dave, so the few of us who are working with the
complex raw data from MRI scanners are probably out of luck.
(But I bet there are more of us than there are of the NASA
imaging folks.... how come they get what they want? ;) )

Craig -
I believe that most people that use MRI images, like our group,
are using the images after they have been reconstructed. At this
point they are simple 16-bit signed integer images.
