I am not convinced that a scanner belongs on the "really need" list. However, if it does, the Fujitsu 4120C is an amazing little machine. It's more expensive than people (including me) usually want to spend, but it makes up for that by working very, very nicely and causing no trouble (at least on my desk). They're around $1000 new (I understand reconditioned models can be found on Ebay), but sheet-feed quickly and easily and scan both side of the page in a single pass. They can handle papers of varying widths and lengths and it comes with the full version of Acrobat 5.0, which is worth something right there. I am experimenting with "paperless filing" with the Fujitsu and Paperport 9 - I'm not yet convinced it's the way to go, but it's a lot closer than I've ever seen things before. This Fujitsu has changed my mind about scanning - until I got it, my reaction to the issue was to say "well, scanning is a disaster unless you can afford a really nice scanner, and nobody I know can afford a really nice scanner, so forget about it." That's not true any more. -- Gregory A. Broiles, J.D., E.A.

Not surprisingly, I will be addressing various tech-type issues. The tenative title for the presentation is: "Ten or Twenty Ways to Spend Your Money on Things You Didn't Think You Really Need, but Really Do" Any suggestions from this group would be greatly appreciated. I think one of the important pieces of equipment any new practitioner needs is a good scanner with a paper feed. Any specific suggestions as to the type of scanner that might fill this bill would be particularly appreciated. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Yahoo!
