Sure glad you're not cynical Alan :)

I'm using WiziWYG with Generations4 and getting good results from the Wizi
profiles after a bit of tweaking.  I'm not suggesting WiziWYG is the best
profiling solution, but it can work well with a compatible scanner (a Umax
Astra 2000P is working for me), attention to detail, and some tweaking of
the profiles.

I will suggest the Wizi, specially at $40, is the best bang for the buck
profiler around.
