<P>How so, do you think? I've been trying to piece this

<BR>I can't make much sense of it. But I would love to

I have used the old "Slicer," and the renamed and updated Noesys
programs,
<BR>on MacIntosh PPC systems and liked them. But frankly I see no point
for
<BR>Fortner to team up with RSI. The Fortner product is way ahead of IDL
as
<BR>far as 3D visualization goes. Maybe RSI needs Fortner technology and
<BR>Fortner needs RSI cash flow. That is the only spin I can put on this
news.
<BR>BTW, I saw them at the American Geophysical Union (AGU) meeting
<BR>in San Francisco last month, the shared booth looked awkward.
<P>Just my 2 cents,
<BR>Doug
