Malcolm,

Like Kirk and Yuri, we use SAMBA and ws-ftp to look at data in the pc
world.

I've disabled plotting from the instruments computers. Tried enabling
it a couple of months ago, and within two weeks plotters were delaying
acquisitions. Too bad really, because during long acquisitions you
could more conveniently plot from the console without delaying other
spectroscopists. Since computers are < 1% the price of spectrometers,
doing all processing off line seems to pay for itself.
