Has it occurred that possibly..maybe..since you've never even seen windows 7
that you could be...wrr...wrrr...mistaken?

Now -this- is an even-handed review. Compare and contrast with the earlier
one, Tom.
The standard Gold membership at Costco is only $50 per year which provides
2 cards per household. If you get an AMEX Costco card, you get rebates for
charged purchases at Costco including your gasoline. If you step up to the
$100 membership, each eligible purchase qualifies for a rebate of 1, 2,
I'm with Jeff on this. It may not be the most efficient method, but
my scanner creates a jpeg which I print to a pdf doc. I then attach
that to an email message.
For the print/conversion from jpeg to pdf, I use PDFCreator

This is a good arguments for using gmail or something similar for receiving
the list.

It's certainly true that this review is more accurate than the other one,
but there actually is one error, I think. He implies that the taskbar app
thumbnails are new with Win7. They're improved, but not new--Vista had them,
too.
I'd also argue about The Mac OS

LG, Samsung, RIM and a few others have all put out some good products recently.

Slight correction, with the combined Costco membership/American Express
charge card, you do get rebates for charged purchased at Costco with the
regular [Gold Star] membership. The business account isn't the same.
YMMV

You probably shouldn't really need to install a driver at all in

instant scan button) that would require proprietary software.
So, just uninstall Presto and use something else. Or leave it

Yes. In fact, the higher the mah the better, as it signifies more
power over time (milliamps in an hour). The only remote danger might
be that the cell would draw too much current when charging, but I
seriously doubt that would be a problem.

The charges should be a little smarter than that.
Very often some cell phones come with two types of batteries.
Standard or extended.
Of course the extended can have anywhere from a few to double the Mah
capacity. But you use the same charger with them.
