Sorry, but I doubd it. What kind of scanner do they have? (Sorry,) I'm too
lazy to find a culculator just now, but that must be at least 5000 dpi
scanner they have (or they use more bits/pixels - which would make it a
lot different... 20"x30"@305dpi=106MB, really? Maybe I should find that
calculator :-) Anyways, they might do what you tell us (or actually what
_they_tell_you_), but I really think that there is some interpolation
happening in somewhere - no, they might not tell you about it - even if
they really knew.

Got that right! For what we're getting now, the prices are way too high.
(This of course doesn't apply to pro's who really need something like D30,
but to amateurs like me...)
