I am using a computer using Kurzweil version 8, demo, and openbook 6. I am using an HP2. I get good scans with the scanner. Back when Open book 6 came out, I called FS and ask them if I should get a newer scanner. There answer was essentially, Hold on to that scanner as long as you can. If your HP3 works. stay with it. If Guido is listening though I would like his input. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan Mangis" <suemangis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 17, 2005 8:32 PM Subject: [bookshare-discuss] scanners > Good afternoon, > > I am in the process of getting a new computer with windows XP professional. > I will be running Openbook 6 and Kurzweil 9.
