ICC stands for Internation Color Consortium, ICM doesn't stand for
anything, the "M" is just for "module" I guess, without any
correlation to the "IC". Files with these extensions are both ICC
profiles. I'd prefer .

Hi,
I'm the maintainer of the coolscan2 backend in SANE, the UNIX/Linux
scanning system. I'd like to add support for the new Coolscan models
(LS-50, LS-5000, LS-9000). If you have access to one of these and
wouldn't mind helping by testing, please let me know.
Only minor changes should be necess
A good new year to everyone, first of all.

Sounds good, except for the "W" before "Germany". That particular
adapter was made a long time ago, and may or may not have been out of
production for a while.

Is it just me, or do these guys see an enhancement in resolution that
isn't there?
They forget to mention that scanning times also increase, and they
probably get more noise as well.
Interesting nevertheless!

As I said: 2^64 = 18446744073709551616. That's how much RAM can be
directly addressed using 64-bit address registers. Compare this to
roughly 10^23 silicon atoms in a large die like a CPU or RAM
chip. That is the
