Depending upon when you bought Vuescan, and, after some point, which
version you bought, upgrades are free. I paid for Vuescan in 2000 and
have upgraded regularly. You should see whether your version supports
free upgrades and get the latest.
From http://www.hamrick.com/vsm.html ::
VueScan can be downloaded in a few minutes and fully tested for
free before you purchase it. The Standard Edition costs US$49.95
and includes one year of free upgrades. The Professional Edition
costs US$89.85 and adds raw scan files, ICC profiles, IT8 color
calibration and unlimited free upgrades.

I used Vuescan with the Dimage Scan Dual II with much improved
results. Since having the Scan Dual IV, I haven't purchased the
newer version of Vuescan... I haven't felt the need to improve upon
the Minolta software out of the box. But you never know...
