[BioC] Affy : Cel/Cdf files

[James MacDonald]

You don't have to specify the download type, as reposTools will figure
it out for you. The difference is what operating system you are using.
Since you are on windows, you got a win32 package, which was the correct
result.

Hi,

I am trying to understand the affy package and more specially the rma 
function. I type :


> data<-ReadAffy()
>
toto<-rma(data,subset=NULL,verbose=TRUE,destructive=TRUE,normalize=TRUE,backgrounbackground=TRUE,bgversion=1)

and I've got as result :


Note: You did not specify a download type.  Using a default value of:
Win32
This will be fine for almost all users

version 1.8.0
  , installing anyway.

How should I decide which download type I have to specify? What are the

differences between all of these "cdf-types" ?

Could you help me?

Thank you.
