Jerry and the purples

Sounds like a band, doesn't it?

Jerry, a couple of weeks ago you were showing some enthusiasm for the 
greyscale yielded by the purple Pantone duotones supplied with PShop 
6(the fourth one especially, as I remember). I've tried a couple and 
tweaked number 4, printing with Darngoodinks (dye) on Photo Paper in 
an 1160. They work well for this paper too, and like you, I wonder if 
duotones hold much promise for those of us with one printer loaded 
with colour inks and the urge to translate some images into BW. 
However, you haven't said a word about duotones since. Have you had 
second thoughts?
