I am interested in what kinds of experiences people have had with scanners and their associated software (good, bad, and indifferent), first hand experiences would be preferred. Thanks in advance, I will summarize to the net. If this posting looks similar to a posting in comp.periphs from a couple of weeks ago, it is not surprising. I did post a similar RFI and received a total of two responses, one of which was a "me too", needless to say I am hoping for a slightly more enthusiastic response this time. Michael A.
