Very interesting and straight forward test. Would it be possible for
the scanning software to take multiple focus points and adjust the focus
position as the ccd scans the film? Another feature for VueScan?

You never know. The first drive I ever bought was a Maxtor and it died in
two months. IBM has a good rep and one of theirs died on me six months ago.
Like I said you never know. And if we keep this going some guy's gonna
relate a sad story about Seagate, too. Good to see a company at least
trying to do it right on the support end, though. I recently had a similar
happy experience with the tech support at Adaptec. Within a week I read
somewhere (on this list, I believe) another person's disappointment in the
way Adaptec supported their product. Like I said . . . .
