A situation that seems to happen a lot unfortunately...<br>

Yep. Originally I was going to support Mustek scanners. I even<br>
|
||
went so far as to buy one. But, after a 3 days of trying to get<br>
|
||
it to work by following the SCSI spec, it wasn't happening. When<br>
|
||
I call Mustek the tech support person said "Nobody outside of<br>
|
||
Taiwan knows anything about programming these scanners." and<br>
|
||
the response to "Is there somebody else that might know more<br>
|
||
about it?" was "Nobody knows more about it than I do."<br>

Well, I returned the Mustek and got an HP. 4 hours after it arrived,<br>
|
