Hi Mindy,

Since the Vantage is a jet in air and the LSR II uses a cuvette, the LSR II
will have greater sensitivity at comparable laser powers.  Since you can
increase the laser power on most Vantages, you can approach the sensitivity
of the LSR II.	However, if you don't need sorting, the LSR II does have the
advantage of being expandable to at least 18 colors (Mario may have his up
to even more by now).
