SCSI for scanners was a disaster!

As a side note.. Anyone looking for a good USB Scanner for Linux..

Epson Perfection 1650 USB Scanner - It's one of the BEST supported
USB scanners under linux (Way to go Epson!) they even provide their own
scanner interface (that hooks into the Sane infrastructure).. which works
far better than xsane on some items, especially doing transparencies/film.
