I called the processing arm of Nimslo, 'Nim-SLOW (very SLOW)'! One
time they messed up and sent me 2D prints from another customer. 
After one year, I was still not satisfied. They did not reply to my 
letters and each time I called, the person I had talked with last was
no longer with the company.
