Boris,

If you do, let us know what you think. I am very curious.

Clyde is probably one of the people who could not adjust to the lower Dmax
of the carbon pigment inks on matte paper. He may be making a mistake on
those "display life" numbers though. The values Epson publishes are only
meaningful for the Epson papers actually tested. Of course he sure has a lot
of sun and humidity where he is at to do his own testing!
