### Usage

### Arguments

### Details

The `marrayNorm` class is defined in the `marray` package. This function converts a normalized two color microarray data object created by the `marray` package into the corresponding limma data object.

Note that such conversion is not necessary to access the limma linear modelling functions, because `lmFit` will operate on a `marrayNorm` data object directly.
