"Better" means different things to different users. When we decided to upgrade I thought about a TP9 too but frankly it couldn't do much more than the Quads we already had. It just did it with a bigger footprint. We got a Topaz because we needed hi

Hi, I can give my opinion in this topic since I worked with both machines. To say the truth, I would recommend neither machine. First of all, operating software is much quite the same for both machines. The TP9 is true that has a larger footprint ov

Whatever you decide to do, make sure the machine you get meets your requirements for capability as well as cost. We've now got three machines referenced, all with vastly different capabilities, some of which you may have to sacrifice to get the oth
