\begin{Description}\relax
Turn a \code{MArrayLM} object into a \code{data.frame}.
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}

\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{x}] an object of class \code{MArrayLM}
\item[\code{row.names}] \code{NULL} or a character vector giving the row names for the
data frame.  Missing values are not allowed.
\item[\code{optional}] logical. If \code{TRUE}, setting row names and converting column
names (to syntactic names) is optional.
\item[\code{...}] additional arguments to be passed to or from methods.
