Re: [MLUG] scanner

Or buy a scanner that is supported. *Shrugs* Scanners are like printers 
in that they are horribly supported. I have a bunch sitting here that 
won't work with XP, Linux, etc. I could use them if I wanted to install 
Windows 95 and dig up ancient drivers but why bother. I guess I could 
make my own drivers but I don't like scanning enough to make it worth 
while to bother hooking up half a dozen scanners. :)
