mean vs median of pixel values within spot mask wasRe: [BioC] something weird with read.maimages and .gpr files

It seems that I answered my own question ....

There was a typo that was entered into the Genepix software so the output 
would not parse. Limmas read.maimages looks specifically for the F532 Mean 
for the R channel, instead F594 Mean was written

Since it is the case that the Mean of the pixels in the pot mask are used 
in limma as default: are they any arguments for using the mean values over 
the median values? Would the assumption here be that the spot morphology 
must be impeccable?
