Hello:

     I tried out the Docuscan on a Mac Mini. When running on a Mac, the 
DocuScan is a cloud based system. The only big problem I encountered is that a 
user can overrun the system. A camera such as the HoverCam can snap pictures 
very rapidly. I discovered that I I got too far ahead, around 5-10 pages, the 
system will freeze.

Regards,

Robert

Hi Lisa.
About the closest thing I've found is docuscan plus. Due to the way
it's set up, you can run it on a Mac or Windows. I'm curious to know
if anyone has any solutions that are less expensive though.
