Ouch !!!! A head's up from a Digest reader and a quick trip to Deja News left my ears ringing. Barnett's appears to be bad news. But, you know, I did buy a HP Scanjet4C off of them last year and had minimal problems (they did send an Apple instead of a PC version but replaced it promptly). If anybody has delt with them successfully, please let me know. OK - how about the second best price ... ?
