Summary: Mighty fine. Good quality for the price.
Review: The setup for this scanner was exetremely simple. (Make sure and follow instructions, it might mess up on you if you don't.) It only took me about 15 minutes for completely set it up, and within 5 minutes afterwards I had already scanned in 3 pictures! :-) This is a great little scanner for home use. Don't expect professional quality, but do expect pretty gosh darn good quality. (Yes, I'm from Kentucky. :-D) The software that comes with it isn't the tops, but it's not so bad. I myself use Corel Photo House 5, which came with my computer, and not the scanner. So if you can lay your hands on a low-priced copy of that software, that'd be great. If you're wanting to use the scanner for professional publications, etc., I wouldn't recommend it, but if you just want to use it to scan in family photos to share with family, or on your website, then great! :-D I do hope this review helped. :-D

Summary: Visioneer - scanner of the future
Review: This is my third scanner b/c i had been terribly unhappy with the canon and epson i had bought before... they never worked. This is a miracle. I have been scanning and faxing non-stop. I love it. high quality and reliability. highly recommended.

Summary: First timer, and the machine was gentle.
Review: This scanner is a steal at this price, especially for those new to the world of computer technology. The software included allows for a variety of projects, and is explained in lay terms that make the experiance that much easier. Though this scanners' price is a bargain, you get much more than you pay for. The set up is easy, just plug it in and scan away. The resolution is great, and for those photos where your badside is showing there are a myriad of editing options available, so you can always look your beat, even when you don't. I have also scanned documents and had great results. If you are looking for a home scanner this is a great bargain with top quality software, this is it.

Summary: Excellent scanner, even without the low price
Review: This scanner was a breeze to install, and the software is good, EXCEPT you should immediately uninstall the BMC bookmark program as it is annoying and takes up system resources. The resolution is great, and I have been able to make good quality images for print and the web with this scanner. I do web sites for a living, and needed a scanner at home for some work I do away from the office. At the office, we have an HP 5200C, and I find this Visioneer scanner up to par with the HP. The HP software is a little nicer, but ScanSoft is easy to use, and the image editing is not bad for those who don't have more advanced image editing software like Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro. I DO run an AMD processor, a 1 Ghz Thunderbird, so those out there that see the other review about the Athlon can be rest assured it works fine on a Thunderbird.

Summary: Poor support
Review: Unit setup went well but when I tried to scan my computer couldn't find the scanner. After several calls (no toll free no.)and several hours of trial and error Visioneer admitted that they a problem running on an Athlon processor powered PC. I never got the scanner to work and sent it back.If Visioneer had been upfront in their specs I could have avoided this waste of time.
