Roland and All, Melco posts their Training Schedule on the Melco University WEB site at . http://www.melcouniversity.com/html/Classroom.html The only place Advanced Digitizing is offered is in Denver. New Jersey only has 1 class room, it is hard to schedule anything there other than the entry classes as that is what is in demand there.

They really don't offer one-but if we could time it with John Dekovic and/or someone from Melco for a week the training lab is sitting empty I"m sure we could pull it off! Instead of 'basic' operating stuff that you get in the regular class, I want a full session of Design Shop digitizing-and sewouts on hard to do low profile hats, back of hats, knit hats, heavy jackets-the real hard stuff! And my wife wants MORE info on how to setup the machine for different fabrics and different backings, different hooping systems... Timewise-I'm thinking late fall, or after the holidays-during the 'downtime' in January or February....Melco should have all the bugs figured out of the upgrade that we are finding-and they could promote new stuff, have us test things-whatever...good promo time for them! So if others are interested-let me know and I"ll see what we can do! -- Roland R. Irish III Sunrise Graphics 116 Main St Claremont, NH 03743 603-543-1324 fax 603-543-9902 www.sunrisegraphics.org
