Stop it Ibby. You're making me ever so slightly envious over this scanner (smiles).

Hi Derik,the Canoscan Lide 70 scanner by canon should be ok as it seems to be a model up from one I have used. However, The one I am going to get is the Opticbook3600 which is a great scanner. This will work with both Openbook andKurzweil. This scanner also allows you to scan a book right up to the spine.Good luck and hope this helps.

But while I've nothing against the spec of the Tosh they are recommending, I wouldn't look past an HP now because, having had mine for three months, it's never off. I've never really got into laptops for a lot of reasons, but the HP models are brilliant for the fact they have the numeric keypad, and I think that's helpful to save trying to remember JFW combined keystrokes. Obviously you'll be using it for study or work purposes, so putting music through it might be an aside, but the HP is brill for that too. If you can customise the software that sometimes comes with HP and Compaq machines, you're laughing I reckon. But it's down to personal choice, and others here might say different, and that's what makes it interesting. Good luck.

My local authority is looking at funding equipment for me and they are recommending: "Toshiba satellite pro laptop A200 with 1GB ram memory, with windows XP pro included." Is this a good choice for Jaws and a scanner? "Jaws update to number 8 from" Iassume if jaws was bought next year it would be Jaws9 "Canoscan Lide 70 scanner by canon and Openbook from (latest high specification OCR software) Is this a good choice for the scanner?
