The 9000 series (35 and MF) is supposed to be killer. The 8000 was very 
impressive, but
my god was it slow, regardless of the Firewire connection. Maybe a 
firmware problem, who knows.  Also banding issues in the darks, in some 
machines.

The 9000 isn't cheap, but for what it does, it's a bargain at $2000...
