Jack,
        Can you remind us of this when your book actually comes out?  I'm
sure a lot of us would like to see something like that.  I know I would find
that a very interesting read.
thx,
alex

Are you sure that Sony has discontinued Virtuoso/Soloist? The last I heard
they
had bunded the two programs under the new tradename of SANS.  Tandberg (aka
SANAKO) also markets entirely software-based systems.  In addition, there
area
dozen other virtual digital lab systems to choose from. I am curently
editing an
IALLT monograph that provides a comprehensive comparative evaluation of the
majority of them.  It will be about three months before the book is
published,
but if you can wait I'm sure it will be well worth it.  Jack
