    To add to that, you had to use three color filters on a special
tray (and so required three separate passes for red, green and blue
information, changing the filter with each pass). It was merely an
accessory add-on for the original B&W Quickie. You might be able to
rig up your own "Quickie C" with some clear colored filters (sheets
of very thin plastic) and the software that came with it.

    Probably not worthwhile though, the reports were the 'C' option
didn't work too well, if at all at times (anyone have some samples
they could post up? I'm curious what kind of results it gave). With
the Quickie no longer available, I very much doubt the Quickie C is
either. Hmm, I wonder if Vitesse would allow Shareware Solutions II 
to distribute the Quickie C software.
