I paid $1000 for Open Book. Seems like a bargain to me. Andy "I'm pretty good at drinkin beer."

I disagree the Mac is ridiculously priced. In fact the cost of ownership for a Mac user will be less than a PC user. Sure you pay more on the front-end, but the cost of upgrading the OS, applications, and so forth is less, and you are getting a more quality product for your dollar. There is a price for innovation and quality, so I digress from the thread, but let me toss in the final note that if you had to purchase a windows screen reader with that PC, you would pay about the same price. :) On Apr 29, 2011, at 2:33 AM, brandt wrote: Hi there, Yes, $299 is a fair bit of money, but how many actually went and bought open Book or something similar back when ever for 3 ore 4 times more? My biggest complaint is not the cost of software but the ridiculous prices of Mac computers. I can and probably will go the Hakintosh route just because of that.

DocuScan is now mac compatible and can be found on the mac app store. Don't get too excited though, unless you have $299.00 to burn on it.
