Hi,here I'd like to talk about colorful RP model again.
        Today,users of RP systems are big companes,service bureaus and reseach
institutes.engineers operate these systems.and RP models are used in design
circle.Accuracy and cost of RP models  may be more important factors than color.
If rp systems  are used in other fields,the color or other features of a 3D
object will become important.for example,it should be helpful to have a colorful
RP model in medical application.So,the usage of RP model determines which
feature of a 3D object  is the most important.and This is real challenge to us
RPers.
        Ian gave a very interesting thing,a 3D fax machine.It maybe come to
truth I send Ian a FUJI mountain by our 3D fax machine.why not!
we maybe use personal-RP systems in office or home just like we are using
personal computer today.Any idea is welcome if you'd like to create 3d objects
for certain usage!!!
