Dear All,

I am planning to acquire IDL or PV-Wave, and I was looking for
information about their respective strenghts. The FAQ avoids
this issue, so I was hoping you could enlighten me, while
being fair to both parties.

The following things are very important in my work:
. image and video processing
. machine learning and neural nets
. rich programming language (batch processing)
. linking with C/C++ code (under Windows NT, but also perhaps Linux)
. speed (including speed of the IDL language)
. many active users
How do the products compare in the above regards?

What product has the largest active user community?

From IDL and PV-Wave's Web pages, I get the impression that
PV-Wave sells more different commercial components/toolboxes
(signal processing, beta image processing)

What are your thoughts?

Thank you,
Martin Szummer
