I keep looking at what the requirements to run software are, and I keep thinking that my computer is modern so I shouldn't have any issues. The simple fact is I've had many of these devices much longer than I thought and the world has moved on. The scanner I thought was three years old I had is nearer six - and bought at the end of its production run, and I much expect to see this machine is much about the same age when I check. My next update won't be to software, it will be to hardware. Oh yes, and a really decent monitor.
