You do have a valid point there Davina, even though the L180 is only
about 200 cartridges per square meter, the Scalar 1000 is less than that
because of the age of the design. If density is your key point however
then you are much better of with the Scalar 10K, with its 900 cartridges
per meter squared!

And for Bob Schuknecht who pointed out the library is very fast, its
rated at 350 exchanges per hour, worst case (full length).
