Ok That's a good reason.

I can think of another CCD that has:
  • Full Frame Image Buffer
  • Multiple A/D Channels
  • Image and Guide While Downloading
  • Internal and External Self-Guiding (with Remote Head)
  • Simultaneous Dual CCD Guiding
  • Differential Guiding
  • Continuous Guiding During Autograb
  • Adaptive Optics Control with Internal or External Guider
  • -50 degrees C Delta Cooling with Air Only
  • Water Cooling Ready
  • Even-illumination Mechanical Shutter
  • Gas Purge Valve on CCD Chamber
  • User Rechargeable Desiccant Plug
  • Variable Speed Fan Control
  • Focus Mechanism for Tracking CCD
  • Opto-isolated Relays for Telescope Control
Doh! *I* Better hit the gong before its too late
