Which thermocycler to buy???

[Mike Curtin]

Our lab is in the market for a new thermocycler.  I have narrowed the 
field down to two choises:  MJ Research PTC-100 and Biometra UNO-96.    
Can anyone please provide personal accounts of these machines, as to 
their performance, reliability, and dependability.  I'm especially 
interested in the Biometra machines.  Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.  Thanks!!
