Ah, how stupid of me. I got confused looking at the help for split,
which is designed to split *vectors* on a factor, hence my thinking that
you were splitting on rows rather than columns.
As an aside, given that there is already subsetting of an AffyBatch
using the '[' operator, is split.AffyBatch simply designed to allow
subsetting based e.g., on something in the phenoData slot, or is there
another rationale?
Best,
Jim

I think I designed split.AffyBatch to split on columns (and
'example(split.AffyBatch)'
seems to confirm that).
