One possibly helpful note about Illumina arrays is that you need to make
a change to the Settings.xml file in the ProgramFiles/Illumina/BeadScan
directory in order to get summary or bead-level text files which can
then be read in using read.table or with the beadarray package.
Change the line: <SaveTextFiles>false</SaveTextFiles> to
<SaveTextFiles>true</SaveTextFiles>
and add the following line if you want bead-level data:
<SavePerBeadFiles>true</SavePerBeadFiles>
Keep in mind that the bead-level files are large especially for the
whole genome chips.
