Im curious because I was reading that these services work off their own databases, so its not uncommon (or so Ive heard) that one service can yield a somewhat different result from another services findings. yeah I did 23andme and ancestrydna. both give different results because they use different reference populations Wow, thanks for sharing. Do you think one was better than the other, or would you recommend one over the other? 23andme is better imo, and they're having a big update in the coming months that'll be rolled out to everyone for free. they basically have 31 regions right now and are adding 120, so it'll get more detailed --- Hey what's going on in this thread http://i.imgur.com/6fpKRW8.gif http://i.imgur.com/RNZi0gk.gif <cite>ThyCorndog posted [p:897353784] in would you ...
