Hamilton--2000 - The Controversies Continue

Similarly, will this be the year that we'll stop hearing about thermal vs. visible-light imaging? The whole debate has been somewhat nauseating, as both technologies have been shown to work extremely well and offer distinctive advantages for specific applications. On this front, there is talk of a new type of imaging laser coming to fruition, based on the same technology as is used for DVD players. If it's just another imaging technology, I don't want to hear about it. But if it will lower plate costs, reduce imaging or processing time, or provide a tangible benefit to the printer, then I'm all ears.
