Here is an excerpt from the on-line help of my free program MFI:
[BEGIN QUOTE]
CYTOMETER/SOFTWARE FILES TESTED
[...]
FACStation 1.0 'CellQuest' MacIntosh System Software 7.1.0 (FACScan) ***
[...]
*** The FACStation 1.0/MacIntosh files tested do not include instrument
gains, PMV's, threshold, or compensation. Becton-Dickinson promises to
rectify this serious deficiency in a future upgrade. This deficiency
precludes MFI from detecting inadvertant changes in instrument settings.
[END QUOTE]
The above statement is based on my September, 1994 correspondence with
Michael Cosgrove, B-D's project manager for CELLQuest. I have CC'd this
message to Mr. Cosgrove -- perhaps he can let us know when the upgrade can
be expected?
