I would use some caution with these cdfs. The problem with this chip
(and possibly the Exon chip as well) is that Affy has changed the
probe/probeset relationship. In the past, as far as I know each
probeset
was comprised of a unique set of probes that were not shared with any
other probeset. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case. From Affy's
documentation of the pgf format, found here:
https://www.affymetrix.com/support/developer/fusion/File_Format_PGF_ap
tv161.pdf
Probe Level (level 2)
probe_id (required): an integer id >= 0 which is a foreign key
into the CLF file; a specific probe may be present in more
than one probeset and as such is not guarateed to be
unique in the PGF file. Also note that the additional columns
of information at the probe level may be context dependent.
So for example a particular probe could potentially be a PM
probe in one probeset and an MM probe in another. While
unlikely, this is a possibility.
Both makecdfenv and makePlatformDesign make the assumption that there
is
a one-to-one mapping of probe ==> probeset, so any probes that map to
more than one probeset are eliminated when the cdfenv/PDenv is
produced.
For instance:

Error in get(x, envir, mode, inherits) : variable "7896738" was not
found
You can either grep these probesets from the .pgf file for this chip,
or
simply go to netaffx and do a query on these three probesets to see
that
they all interrogate the same transcript, and that 7896738 has 31
probes
(all of which are in 8023935, so get removed), and 7991665 has 33
probes, only one of which is unique (the other 32 are in 8023935).
About 5% of the probes on this chip get removed because they are
duplicates. Not exactly a huge problem, but something to be aware of.
Best,
Jim
