    HP Scan Drivers

    If the Scan Jet drivers are anything like the OfficeJet AIO drivers be prepared for garbage. There is a six month wait for the first version which is an alpha version, another two or three month wait for the corrected version which is not even a functional beta and then you are completely ignored from then on. I thought HP was an experienced computer company with plenty of Unix experience but not anymore. Kinda sad to see a company like that go downhill so quickly. I guess we can look at HP and Compaq as the logical result of the leadership that Dell provides in the PC industry. ie: no time or money for research or development other than marketing.

    I have not found a problem with them so far, apart from wanting to boot a Classic version the first time. All the functionality of the OS 9 version is there as far as I can see. The only thing I haven't checked is OCR, because I never use it.

    HP

    I'm very angry with HP. They promised Fall and they are delaying SIX MONTHS! No beta versions for the drivers, no update, the usual standard reply to every mail sent. A very bad customer service I must say, like the company going down these days, with the layoffs and the rest. They used to be one of the best computer companies. What a pity
