I always thought that was just a phraise that peopole liked to say to sound profound but I swear it is true. On January 17, 1991 I saw the Oscar and quite frankly was impressed however I saw a press release yesterday from Arkanstone indicating they had new software that had the same features for a better price. This press release stated that the new software had the ability to allow reading while scanning was taking place and the ability to detect whether a document was upside down or sideways. All that for a better price. It's time to buy! but then on seccond thought if I wait for another few months no telling what improvements will be made. Grant I'm sure glad I waited and my boss will be glad when it comes time to look at the balance sheet. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!381!9.0!Grant.Downey Internet: Grant.Downey@p0.f9.n381.z1.fidonet.org
