[Leica] Tina and Digital (was, Enlarger

[bruce at ralgo.nl (bruce)]

I'm lost in this babble .................. but what I do know Barney,  
is that your text on "image processing and computing" is a succinct  
and meaningful analysis of the various aspects which can only serve  
to further the knowledge of most/many of those on the LUG ...........  
a time-consuming account, for which thank you.
