Jeff's comments about the limits of human visual perception should not be
understood to be SGI policy; they represent his opinion only.  Others of
us here at SGI read Stereophile religiously, do not accept 8-bit DACs as
the eternal "right" answer, and continue to work hard to improve the visual
quality of our products.
