Hey everyone -

I'm a new member of the list, and am probably bringing up a topic that has 
been beaten to death.....but:
I am looking to purchase a few MiScope digital microscopes for a hands-on 
fossil lab we have here at the Museum of the Earth.
http://www.zarbeco.com/miscope_1a.htm

They look very efficient and easy to use; and my worry about them "walking 
off" is lessened by the presence of a docent whenever the scopes are in 
use.  Does anyone have opinions, warnings, or ideas about their use?  I'd 
love to hear from someone who has used them in a museum setting.

Feel free to respond to me directly, off list.
Thanks!
