hah, tell me what you REALLY think!

I wonder why it's that bad, seems to make sense.  Then again, I don't
know why someone doesn't just load up a Fuji, Noritsu, Lightjet with
fiber based b/w paper and do that, or RC is that's not possible, vs.
using an digital optical enlarger.  While I really like mPix/Miller's
lab, I didn't find that their b/w only prints were good enough.

I wonder if the grid problem is because of optically enlarging a
digital file, vs. having a laser image the paper (?)

Thanks for the input.......
