Hi Peng,

You are right about the 1st two.  If it is hard to find out from the
wet-lab folks which version of the platform they are running, the probe
IDs in their output should help you figure out which version you have.

There are several methods you can use to get the IDs mapped onto the
probes.  These are described in the vignettes for the AnnotationDbi,
annotate and annaffy package.  You can look at the vignettes for these
packages by browsing our web site, or by loading the package and using
openVignette().  What you do here will really depend on what you have
and what you want to get.
