Welcome to IWETHEY!

Post #262,429 by admin 7/21/06 11:08:11 PM Reply	Last minute request for suggestions Nothing to do with this, other than I need to tell my mother something. :-P She needs to buy a new scanner, and would like recommendations. She's an artist and she likes to scan in her artwork. Other than that I don't have much to go on. Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
Post #262,433 by Another Scott 7/21/06 11:29:38 PM Reply	I've been happy with my Canon Lide 80 USB thingy. It has several buttons on the front. If you push one of them, it'll make a "copy" of what's on the glass and send it to the printer with little, if any, other action on your part. It also has done fine with color scans I've done, but to be honest I've probably only used it 10 times since I bought it (don't need to very often). Amazon has some [link\|http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000AZ3BL/102-8590707-5912106?redirect=true&v=glance&n=172282\|info on it], but none for sale. I'm not sure what the differences are between the 3 models that [link\|http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?DEPA=0&type=&Description=lide&Submit=ENE&Ntk=all&N=0&minPrice=&maxPrice=&Go.x=0&Go.y=0\|newegg] has other than the price. The $44 one might be fine. HTH a bit. Cheers, Scott.

It'll be gradual, but faster than you expect. One day it won't be there, and the next day you'll be surprised at just how fast it still isn't.
