[Histonet] Ventana Benchmark Problems

[Tony Henwood]

This is interesting.
Vision used to make quite a bit of equipment for Leica, eg their HE
stainer and processor (which one, I can't remember). It seems it has
gone full cycle.
Just another Australian Company gobbled-up by big multinationals.

The company is Danaher. They also own a little brand called Leica
Microsystems.

nope,
I heard the same thing until a Cytyk rep told me that some other company
out

bid them by 23 million. Some company that I've never heard of before. 
Couldn't remember the company if you paid me. All I know is that
currently 
they do not have a laboratory division. I think they may make surgical
or 
x-ray equipment. I may be wrong (I know I know, I'm admitting it
publicly I 
may be wrong-- like that hasn't happened before). So, is it Friday yet?

Joe, let's flame him, Nocito
