Dear Crispin,

thanks a lot for your answer!

This seems indeed to be the case. Running the R implementation of mas5

  x.mas5 <- call.exprs(x, "mas5-R")

gives me decent scale factors.

When and where will this patch be available? I downloaded and installed 
simpleaffy_2.10-1 from the 25th of march from the developmental 
packages site, but I still get the same error:

qc<-qc(x, x.mas5R)
Getting probe level data...
Computing p-values
Doing PMA Calls
Error in FUN(X[[4]], ...) : subscript out of bounds


Best,

Georg
