Miserable? How? Where are you hearing these cries from the masses? Yes,
there are problems that need to be addressed but in the last two weeks,
you've suggested there are problems of overwhelming proportions that I'm
just not hearing or seeing. First, the Raw workflow is going to hell in a
hand basket due to something to do with Adobe and the fact they don't deal
with ICC camera profiles (have you read about what they are doing with the
new DNG spec?). Now there's a problem with users who apparently don't
recognize some drift or hosed output but they don't as you point out,
recognize it but apparently you do? I'm confused.

I agree that it can (and is) a real problem for some and we can't trust our
eyes, otherwise why use instruments in the first place. What I don't agree
with is Edmund's point that there is some huge issue for (as Marco puts it)
Joe user.

Check it for what? And then, assuming something is "broken", its going to
"fix it"?
