[SLL] technically speaking, what might the vendor do?

[Mathew D. Watson]

I was all excited when I saw Rob's posting. ... Unfortunately, it didn't 
make a difference. The default max frequency on my system was 64. 
Increasing it to 1024, or reducing it to 30, made no difference in the 
camera's performance.

Thank you very much for the suggestion. I appreciate it.
