Dear Flow-ers,

We have released a new version of FlowJo, available for immediate download.
Along with sundry bug fixes and refinements, this version contains a
powerful new algorithm for comparing histograms.

Version 3.2 of this popular off-line analysis program provides a unique
integrated platform for comparing univariate distributions.  FlowJo
provides the standard K-S statistic, with its inherent limitations, but we
also provide a new metric to compare histograms.  This "Chi-Squared T
Value"  provides an indication of the statistical significance with which
two histograms are different, and its value scales with the degree of
difference.  This means that, for the first time, histograms can be ranked
by a value that conveys how different they are!

We would like to invite everyone to explore the power of this new
algorithm.  For more information, see
<http://www.flowjo.com/v3/html/comparison.html>.

We are maintaining our policy that allows you to download and try FlowJo
for 60 days at no charge.  See <http://www.flowjo.com> for more information
and download instructions.

Adam
