Reviews Equipment | Software | Books:Technical | Books:Environmental I am frequently asked for my opinions on a variety of products and services by both manufacturers, dealers, and consumers. These reviews are designed to let people know about tools I find useful. These reviews represent nothing more than my considered and experienced opinion. My reviews are not intended to be comprehensive. If I review a product I simply describe what I like most about it or why I find it useful. I don't test every competitive product. If I don’t use a product, I don’t review it. It’s important for you to know I have many relationships with manufacturers. Some of them are formal – Canon and Epson. Some of them are informal – Adobe, Apple, Chromix, LowePro, NEC, and X-Rite. This frequently facilitates access to equipment and information about it. These reviews are not paid for, by either manufacturers, dealers, or consumers. I hope you find the information in my reviews useful.
