I have Precision II scanner that is rarely used any more as most all of
my photography is digital capture now. I'm contemplating moving the
scanner off of my normal image editing system (G4 Mac running OS-X) and
putting it on an XP system that's used for routine office tasks. I'm
tempted to make the switch largely for office desk space issues more
than anything else. The scanner fits better on a less used desk near
the Windows system. This would allow someone else to be using the
scanner while I'm occupied with image editing. Are there any particular
problems or advantages to running this scanner on XP that I should be
aware of before I make the switch? I seem to recall seeing posts from
Imacon users here running both platforms. I have zero experience with
Imacon equipment under Windows. At one time (several years ago) I was
under the impression that the Windows drivers lagged somewhat behind in
development compared to the Mac software. I don't know that that's the
case anymore... especially with this older scanner. Would love to hear
from real users before I start unplugging and moving things around.
Thanks!
Bob Smith
