I don't know if there's better scanner software for the NeXT than
HSD's PowerScan, but I do know that it is in no way comparable to
the old Scan-X software, which, I agree, was junk.  This time, they
did _lots_ of testing and fixing and improving before the release.

PowerScan is fairly well designed and works well.  One warning:
it's not fancy in terms of either functionality or interface, but
it seems to be a good, usable piece of software that does somewhat
more than you'd minimally expect (rather than somewhat less) and
does it fairly reliably.  

I'm _very_ glad we're using it instead of Scan-X.  PowerScan is
good.

Regards,
 - Irving
