Yup... that was me... at least, i did ask and no one replied... till now :)
Well, asked about the Nikon 4000ED in this very forum... was told it was
great... no one mentioned the focus/sharpness problem... and now i'm
stuck.... what makes matters worse is that i run a W2K, dual processor
system and Nikon Scan keeps crashing.... configuring it run on a single PC
is of no use. There was a very helpful suggestion from an individual
(complete with all the necessary instructions) to boot as a single processor
system whenever i want to run Nikon Scan. I'm getting more and more tempted
to take him up on his suggestion. Its just a shame tho' that one expects so
much from a company like Nikon and even the software doesn't work....
