I almost fainted!!! I was reading your post Bert and then you said "get a good one at a good price with Brother" and I had to go back up and check to see if I was indeed reading a post of yours. Then I finished the sentence and laughed!!!
George, a lot of us on here use the Brother and find it very well worth the price. It even comes with its own document management software "Paperport". However, there have been issues with the newer versions (11 and above) of Paperport so I do not want tout it as the be all. But, free is good. I also think there have been additional updates to PP making it more W7 friendly but I have not investigated this much so far.
