I got a brochure recently on Zeiss's new LSM5 Live confocal
microscope for live cell imaging.  It appears to be designed to
compete with the spinning disk instruments, however it is a line
scanner rather than a point scanner or Nipkow disk.  Has anyone
actually seen the instrument to comment on its performance?  Thanks-
Dave
