hi folks - my question is this: I have xp pro and a polaroid 4000 on an 
adaptec 2906 scsi card.   Scanner seems to be working fine without these 
aspi drivers when using the polaroid insight software.   - what is the 
benefit of having these ASPI drivers?   Are they needed only for an 
application like Vuesscan [twain]?   Polaroid tells me that their 
'insight' software is not twain driven [it saves the scans then opens 
them in pshop, rather than working witin it], so does this explain why 
I've gotten by w/o them?

Sorry for the dumb (?) question - there's only so much that I can keep up 
with on these fancy komputer terms...
