Perhaps that is why I am quite charged by your comments. I thought this list was supposed to be a forum for people in flow cytometry. I think it's wonderful that you run 400 to 600 samples a day, however, have you ever had to sit and sort 60 million cells in a day? If so, you would see that being able to look at 50,000 cells/second is quite an advantage over 3,000 cells/second. Also, having high speed allows one to sort and have time to put in a vote. Let's keep it nice. Nastiness is not necessary. Kristin J Elmer Instrumentation Specialist University of Wisconsin, Madison.
