Expo32 has just recently been released and we have not had much time with it
yet but so far, so good.  It has many new features and has (hopefully)
resolved some of the problems in Version 2.  Our early take is that it is
greatly improved.

There is still much to be said for the System II software.  Despite the now
clunky DOS OS, they got many things right (especially regarding workflow for
a clinical lab or research lab that runs the same panels repetitively).

	Last summer, wanting to upgrade our DOS based computer on the Elite,
we
purchased a new EXPO workstation.  We are also very disappointed with
this software [ver 2] as it is a step back in many regards from the DOS
based Elite software.  When we communicated the deficiencies of this
software to Coulter we were told that a new version was being
developed.  Still waiting. . .
