Hi Christian, in fact I have a friend who is a studio photographer and<br>
when I asked last week he offered to do ad-quality studio shots on a<br>
white background.<br>
<br>
He said he preferred adding screens in Photoshop, that it's too<br>
complicated to direct light onto a computer without making the screen<br>
look awful.<br>
<br>
I have half a dozen XO-1s, a Classmate, an EeePC and and Acer Aspire One.<br>
<br>
Ideally, shots with both v0.82 on an XO-1 and SoaS on the XO-1 and the<br>
other machines woould be cool I think...<br>
