I just read an ad (in MACWORLD) for the new version of the Thunderscanner, the
device that is installed in an Apple Imagewriter and used as a graphics
scanner.

The "new, improved" version appears to have better resolution than the old
model, claims to produce true halftones, and can create files in lots of
formats (PostScript, PICT, TIFF).

Has anyone tried out one of these?  I tried out the old model one time, and
while it might be all right for playing around, there was no way it could be
used for serious work (the resolution was terrible).

On the other hand, if they really have improved it, it's the scanner bargain
of the year (price is $249-- even if you have to buy a new imagewriter to use
it, the total cost would be less than most other scanners).

Comments?
