Hi Annie, I do not have an optic book 3800. I have a 3600, which I have been using a long time with Kurzweil 1000 on Windows. But I would like to move to the Mac if I can find a scanner I like with this new find reader. I saw a knowledgebase article on the plus tech website which had a link to a driver that is supposed to let you use the 3800 on the Mac. But it uses their software. So I'm not sure if it will work so I don't know if I want to spend the few hundred bucks on a 3800 only to find out it doesn't work. Smile. Mary
