     This 'RGList_CALIB' object represents microarray data of two
     arrays. It is generated by function 'read.rg' from raw data files.

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     'RG' is an 'RGList_CALIB' object containing the following list
     components: $R,$G,$Rb,$Gb,
     $RArea,$GArea,$targets,$source and $genes. It represents two
     microarrays and 19749 clones.

_S_o_u_r_c_e:

     This comes from a publicly avaible dataset, consisting 14
     hybridizations. From this 'RG', two out of these fourteen are
     chosen. The experiment design  of these two are color flip. Except
     for cDNA probes, external control spikes  are also spotted on the
     arrays. There are 192 ratio controls, 480 calibration  controls,24
     negative controls and 72 utility controls.
