Hehe, manufacturer support... can sometimes be a real pain. I'm just having trouble with Le*c* microsystems... but N*k*n is even worse, here. To get this on topic again: I've got an old K-1000 body attached to my electron microscope (Camscan CS4 SEM with EDX & WDX). Would it be a wise idea to replace this with an *ist-D ? :-) Thomas
