The Windows software might very well be rubbish. The software that collects the scans is klunky and is Windows-only. On the plus side, you don't have to be at the computer to control the scanning, as each scan is initiated using the buttons on the scanner.

The Plustek website has drivers for Vista and Win7, but I've never used either OS, so I can't say if they work well or not. They were updated 09-30-2009, so maybe they've fixed the problems the Vista users had.
Thanks, I appreciate the information.

That makes me laugh. How in the World is one expected to pull off getting the authors permission?
