This morning Tom Abrahamsson and I were discussing an aspect of this 
over coffee.

Both our books were naturally printed at the same facility in 
Seattle, WA. We assume that the printing facilities are given a 
specification by blurb.com regarding printing type, paper, binding, 
inks, tolerances etc.

It would be extremely interesting to see books printed by different 
companies, and how much variation there is in the perceived quality.

We're delighted with ours, and I haven't seen any colour cast on the 
B&W prints. In fact, the quality of the colour and B&W images are all 
pretty much equally good, which is quite an achievement, and is often 
not the case.
