I have been copied this Blurb from the Duxuser list;
I do not understand why someone who obviously does not own a Version 3
Everest (the model on the market since 2002) or version 2 Everest (on the
market since 1997 or earlier) can make such false and misleading statements
about the Everest.
Could it be we emboss from any Windows application, we emboss graphics and
edit graphics easily, our Braille is real Braille and meets all
international Braille standards. In response to your closing statement; when
it comes to our products, sometimes you get more than you pay for, just look
at the Everest and Basic and you will see why the Index Embossers are the
Embosser of choice in so many schools for Blind people.
Alan; to sit back and take a cheap shot at someone else's product without
stating your name or who you work for etc shame on you. The topic is
Graphics, not Everest. By the way math is still done in Nemeth code and for
Nemeth code Duxbury with Scientific Notebook is still the translation
application of choice for Blind Braille users, with which the Index Everest
and Index Basic Embossers do the drawings and Braille extremely well. To
claim that it is only a series of straight lines for a circle is false.

On the other hand, the "Tiger embosser" embosses 4 levels of dots rather
than the one level of the Everest, giving a lot more variation and scope in
the tactile, I also have a little reservation with the "pixilation"
(resolution) factor with the Everest output in graphics mode (I don't agree
that the resolution is "very high quality"), a circle tends to come out as a
series of straight lines that form a circle. It depends on the complexity of
the tactile, but if they're high school maths or anatomy diagrams you really
need the cleanest, leanest tactile possible.
As usual "you gets what you pays for" <smile>
