Dear All,

A group of folks here is interested in applying for $$ to purchase a
deconvolution workstation.  This would include a camera, computer,
microscope with a Z-stepper and a software package.

In my collection of saved messages I found the following:
The packages that I believe are available should be (please add to the list
if I missed something..):
1. AutoDeblur, from AutoQuant, runs on PC(WinNT) or SGI, http://www.aqi.com
2. The Huygens System, from Scientific Volume Imaging B.V., runs on SGI,
http://www.svi.nl
3. DeltaVision, from Applied Precision, runs on SGI, http://www.api.com
4. CELLscan System, from Scanalytics, runs on PC with extra hardware for
processing(?), http://www.scanalytics.com/cellscan.htm
5. MicroTome, from VayTek, runs on PC, http://www.vaytek.com
6. XCOM, shareware (I believe) from Biomedical Computer Laboratory, runs on
UNIX systems (like SGI), http://www.ibc.wustl.edu/bcl/xcosm/xcosm.html
Thanks in beforehand for your comments... If you want to write directly to
me you are welcome also,
Martin

My question is:
Any new developments? Any recommendation on part of expert users?

Thank you very much in advance!
Michal
