<VBG> I got quite a chuckle out of that QX3 review by Kathy & Van Smith. Thanks for the post, phbolton. I think that it was quite a good, well-balanced review. I certainly agree that the microscope is packed well and that it could use some removable slide clips. Their other suggestions would be nice but would make it too expensive for a toy. I can't believe it's less than $60 now. DEFINITELY worth it! I've used microscopes such as Zeiss' Axioplan and while the QX3 can't compare, it is perfect for kids. I wouldn't let my kids anywhere NEAR a $10k microscope <gg>. We even made a website at the Nat Mag Lab!!

I had reported previously that we had made teeth and eye videos in my daughter's K class. Well, the teacher told me she is now "famous" in the school. Most all the other teachers have gotten the "show".
