i thought the turnaround time on the provue was too long. it is easy to run but not too easy to troubleshoot. ours seemed to have several electronic problems, which made it stop working. we did not have the maintenance contract that covered weekends so it was a huge pain, if the provue went down on a friday night. the provue is made for places that could run large batches of samples that were not stats. we were a smaller tertiary care hospitals that had stats all day long but no big runs like outpatient prenatals or surgery pre-quals.
