>> is it a 5850 or 9850? Actually, its a 5850 (I'm not sure about the SP … but I'll find out tomm!) It was my initial thought that the since it was a 5850 that it was "no go" for animation use. Is the 5850 SP OK? (assuming what follows) I looked on the Diaquest 422 brochure and didn't see any 5850's and thought is was probably a wash (yes .. I know there is life after Diaquest). I'll go back tommorrow and take a REAL CLOSE look at the model number. If its a regular 5950, is it not capable of frame animation? >> was it used for animation? No … this company produces, markets and sells a series of videos (a whole catalog of them now). No animation has ever been done on these decks. As a matter of fact, I'm hoping after they see what I do for them with 3DS, they'll be a customer. I'm hoping to barter a "logo-video header" for them (got some cool ideas that have them foaming at the mouth..<g>). >> assuming its a 5850 What's the downside of this deck (other than it's older). Would it be a better deck than say a Panasonic 7750? (which is what I'll get if this falls through). Inquiring minds want to know …… Ang
