Well, for sometime now I've been lusting after HSD's color scanner, but haven't  
been able to find the $2K to buy it.  Most Mac scanners, even the ones that are  
supposedly better than the HSD one (the HP and the UMAX coe to mind) were in  
the $1400 range.  After going to Seybold and playing with Appsoft Image, I know  
that I really want to get a scanner.  Microtek just announced a new low cost  
color scanner (600 dpi, three pass, kind-a-slow) for under $1K!  In this week's  
MacWeek there is an add from "Hardware That Fits" that advertises the new  
MicroTek Scanmaker II Scanner for only $949!  

Does anyone know of a driver for this scanner on the NeXT?
