Dear Tim,
Just saw your message - I happen to be from Computer Friends and we are in the 
business of Computer Portraits and Heat Transfer.
Give me your address and I will send you complete information. We offer a 
system that does what you have seen in Las Vegas, the one made by Color 
Vision, except we have significant advantages - for one thing price, also our 
system is 24 bit color and what you have seen is 8 bit. This results in 
crisper and clearer pictures. We have several other innovations, including the 
ability to automatically adjust the colors of the subject to the colors of the 
 background. Let's say that a lady wants to see what she would look loks if 
she were the Mona Lisa. With our system the subject would be zoomed in with 
the camera until her face matches the size of the Mona Lisa template - then 
one pushbutton command on the custom keyboard would match precisely the 
texture and color of the subject to the background as painted by Leonardo etc.
One other important difference is that the system you have seen is not for 
sale. ColorVision rents these systems at 30 k$ per year. Our system(s) give yu 
more features, more power, cost much. much less and can be purchased.
You are welcome to visit our offices in Portland or, as I said, give us your 
address and we will send you complete information. All our systems are 
upgradeable, meaning that you can start with a very reasonable investement, 
begin to make a profit and then upgrade gradually.
As you have seen, it is a good business and we happen to be very competitive - 
we have even a comparison chart with the features of our systems versus the 
features and the costs of other systems like QLT, RPL etc. And we have samples 
available of portraits, t-shirts, mugs etc. on request.
The cost of the paper and ribbon is less than $3.00 per portrait and the 
portraits, as you have seen, go for about $25.00. You have a gross profit of 
about $22.00 and you can make up to 20 portraits per hour. Usually people sell 
about 100 per day which translates into a gross profit of about $2,200.00 per 
day.
Cheers,
Jimmie Moglia
