Dear William
Sorry it was english pounds which makes it about $10.
Like all things connected to computers the high end stuff is getting more
sophisticated too. Drum Scanners like the CGI can put through many more scans
per hour than the older scanners like the Crosfield. When I went to the IPEX
print show a couple of years ago the CGI was the most expensive scanner there
but because of the clever design was capable of much greater productivity.
