Doug -

Showcase Inc., in Atlanta, GA (800 886 1976 or 404 325 7676) now sell all
the chemicals, 'pan ready' for the Ammonium Pt/Pd process, including
paper. Ask for Floyd. Prices are pretty competetive, and can work out to
around $6 for a 1:1 Pt/Pd 8x10 print (I included paper and all processing
chemicals when figuring out the estimate).
