Re: filmscanners: ss 4000 & eCost

["Maris V. Lidaka, Sr." <mlidaka@ameritech.net>]

For whatever it's worth, David, I for one do not have a problem with
whatever software Polaroid, Nikon, Minolta or any other company bundles or
fails to bundle with its products.  I buy the product for itself, not for
the bundled software which is just window dressing as a rule.

| Symantics, There are two bundle configurations and Silverast is not the
only

which
