Thanks so much for the generous replies I received so far both on and
offline. By the way we visited the three top vendors and saw the systems
in operation. We were slightly handicapped since at startup we don't yet
have crystals and had to rely on standards, but the applications scientists

I second this opinion. At the end of next week our Pilatus 200K will be
delivered. Soon after that I will be able to report on its characteristics.
But really, Boaz nailed it: reliability and service are very important. It does

One of the main things (if not THE main thing) to worry about when investing in such expensive equipment is long-time reliability and quality of service in your place. Nothing is

I'm involved in advising my institute on an X-ray home source for a core
facility. The vendors are offering some new configurations. Whatever the
claimed advantages/disadvantages, I'm hesitant to make a decision without
consulting someone with direct experience with them. In particular, has

Dear Crystallographers,
This 10-question survey is conducted on behalf of the NSF-funded program. It is
designed to get feedback from the structural biology community on
selenium-derivatized nucleic acids for crystallographic applications. Your

Dear All,
Thanks for the reply.
I will try process and refine the data again, will see if it improves.
Thanks again to all.
