The new computer drawn diagrams such as those showing the Impact Interval (2-C) and The Flail (2-K) are much clearer though.

I'm surprised. I was talking with Doug Doo-shet-toe(sp?) in Beaverton some weeks ago and he told me that they were having some graphics specialists work on the photos to clean them up for the next edition. He might have been talking about the 8th edition though because he also said that they were going to have a team of engineers from MIT examine the text for mechanical correctness of description. He added "..it won't be Homer any more, sadly..".
I was in touch with him because I have converted the 6th edition to HTML for personal use only and have found that scanning the photos in the book only made them worse (as one might expect) and as I did not have the technical savvy to clean the pictures up myself, asked if there were any other source of these pictures.
Would be interesting to hear from someone who has a 1st edition as to whether the pictures are clearer.
