As far as I can tell, Nikon Scan was designed and written by high-school students. Nobody else would be inexperienced and naïve enough to put a higher priority on cool, unconventional 3-D effects for buttons and dialog boxes than on ease of use and reliability. This illustrates what seems to be a rule with computers: The better the hardware, the worse the software. It's as if no company can afford to be good at both ... which may well be true. HP makes nice hardware, and so does Nikon--but their software is a nightmare. Conversely, Microsoft makes good software, but their hardware (such as it is) leaves much to be desired. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
