Title: unstable
Product review: Here are various comments I have about this scanner, which I've owned for over two years.- not-too-bad results for color photos, especially for web use.- the film/slide-adapter contraption that it comes with is practically useless. The reflector inside is hazy, and since it is made of cheap plastic, it broke when I tried to use it. The lighting on the resulting images is waay off and the over all quality is pretty bad.- ScanJet software that it comes with isn't too friendly, but it's ok after you get used to it.- scanning anything over 300dpi is much slower than expected- this machine is LOUD!Well just last night, the scanner literally burnt up and died on me when I connected it to another computer. I'm not sure what exactly happened, but when I ran a test scan, the light burnt out and the slider choked as it tried to scan..leaving a pretty nasty burnt odor in the room for a while...
