Yeah, Terry corrected me. Thanks.

Yup, Rev D is also measuring 10nm increments too.

Uh, maybe but I don't think so. This is one of the many reasons why you
could never get GretagMacbeth and X-Rite devices to agree on measurements.

Right, you have that correct.
The original post was to state that the HP internal spectro is measuring
with a different resolution and illumination than typical eye one spectros.
Thanks for the clarification.
