I bought a $79 full page scanner a few years ago. It uses ScanSoft drivers. It worked perfectly on Win98.
When I upgraded to Win2K, it stopped working. I did a bunch of web searches, etc. The short story is that ScanSoft no longer supports the fake SCSI driver-through-the-parallel-port technology that they used to connect to the scanner.
However, since I had an old unused computer, I installed Win98 on it and I now have a "scanning station".
I wouldn't hold your breath ;-)
