Brian,

Much as it annoys me, I think we will need to let it go for now.
Doubtless once the next PC upgrade comes, and the problem strikes here, it
will be fixed, but it's difficult to fix a problem unless you can
reproduce it!

Just one thought - might an "always resample" option, where the "coarse"
image wasn't show, fix it?

Cheers,
David
