This isn't Mac-specific, but I think it will appeal to some folks on the list....
I just got one of these the other day from a web site that's selling them for $50. I highly recommend it for anyone with kids (or who likes gizmos). It's powered off USB, so just one connection, and it works great, especially for the price. I think it would be pretty slick for elementary or secondary education, too. It's designed to work on a PeeCee, but there is an OS X driver now (available through the Apple site). I don't think there's a driver for OS 9. I sure wish I'd had one when I was a kid! I got it from these folks and it was here in a week (I was a little concerned since some reports said it was discontinued): http://www.compuvisor.com/digbluqx3usb.html Some reviews and things. http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/optics/intelplay/ http://www.intel.com/technology/itj/q42001/articles/art_3.htm http://www.rmcain.com/mcama/special/qx3/QX3Twain.mv Mike -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
