The Library should definitely be "device-decomposed-independent",
but I can believe things look silly on any but a 24-bit graphics
card. Dave and I both thought there was no sense any more writing
software that is restricted to 8-bits of color. It is a lot of work
for machines that *surely* are going to be obsolete real soon now. :-)

As soon as I get a customer that requires DICOM output, I'll
probably have to purchase that option. Meanwhile, my second
son is picking out colleges and my attention (and wallet) is
directed elsewhere. :-(
What is PACS, anyway? Never heard of it.
Cheers,
