QTR-Quadtone RIP

koloshor,

OK, thanks, I did get a Mac copy here, so I will play with that.  I was under the impression 
it was possible to get spot reading from the unit through this program, or maybe another 
program?  I don't need the automation, but would like the ability to make decent spot 
readings.

I have an old XRite 400 here, and I think it is working well, but I sometimed get 
inconsistant results out of it, and am not sure it it has gone bad.  I thought I might use the 
Pulse to replace it.
