Hey folks,
I know that this is kind of off topic, but I just got a Epson 1270, and am
wondering if the "fade" of the ink has been resolved. Are there any
solutions for preserving the ink if uncovered? My parents owned an art
supply store before the onslaught of the computer into the graphic
Good, that is.

Dave,
I just happen to be the owner of both (well almost) of those scanners. I
have the older Dimage Scan Dual, which I was very happy with. The Kodak
scanner has been worth every penny that I paid for it, so far...
The scans from the Kodak are great. The software is kind of buggy at times;
that. I'm very happy with with the scanner otherwise.
Accurate color, sharp images, no color corrections, it's a keeper.
P.S. I have not had any computer lockups bad enough to cause a reboot. I
have had to uninstall and re-install once or twice though.

I have the Kodak unit and it will feed strips no problem, but you will have
to improvise on how the film is held outside the scanner--this could be a

Noel,
I don't think that you would have any problems upgrading your PC. The best
thing to do is go on the net and see if the hardware that you own has
upgraded drivers for the OS that you want to upgrade to. Windows also
includes many of the drivers for older pieces of hardware.
