Digital BW, The Print

I don't know, or particularly care, who is right about the QTR license 
agreement. I've used QTR to make exactly one print, as a test for a 
dither banding problem using another product, and then uninstalled it 
(which is easier said than done, incidentally - it leaves droppings all 
over the system). That doesn't exactly put me in a position of 
liability, and I have no particular interest in QTR since I'm not a user.

But I can say that when proponents of one side of an argument are 
incapable of being civil or resisting the temptation to fling snide 
insults, I'm uninclined to credit that side with any particular virtue. 
When such mobs are right, it is usually by coincidence, their position 
having been arrived at by irrational methods - with hysteria and much 
shouting.

To be subjected to this kind of irrelevant, atopical excresence is not 
the reason I'm here.

So QTR users advocate criminal behaviour, and believe QTR should be 
dangerous to use. That makes the product look *really* attractive.

I think if I ever need a RIP, QTR is one that I'll *run* from, if only 
to avoid this kind of association.
