BISON59  Shawnblower,

Thanks for the lecture. Unless you are a developer or friend, perhaps you will show a little compassion when you know all the facts.

On 9/21/06 I purchased VueScan for use on a Canon 8400 scanner. I did check and VueScan supported the 8400.

On 10/1/06 I purchased a Canon 8600 scanner as a replacement for the 8400. The 8600 was relatively new on the market—and it was not unusual for a developer to need some time to catch up. I waited and the developer released many update—none of which supported the 8600.

It is now 12/6/06 and another VueScan release with no support for the 8600.

On 11/26, I emailed the developer and—now read carefully Shawblower— he said he needed a document from Canon and when, IF EVER, he gets it, VueScan will support the Canon 8600. So, it's very possible that I will be out $49.95 FOREVER! Hence, my posting which you responded to.

BISON59  On 9/21/06 I purchased VueScan. On 10/1/06 I purchased a Canon 8600 scanner. VueScan did not support the Canon 8600. Today is 11/28/06 and VueScan still does not support the Canon 8600. In responce to my emails the developer replied that Canon has not responded to his request for a document and when they do —IF EVER— then VueScan will support the Canon 8600. It's good to know that my $49.95 purchase may never be supported. The "IF EVER" are the words of the developer.

BOB  Not ready for prime time. Typing 3 recipes went ok but could not select a single recipe in Shopping to print. The Shopping page has a bug and I could not select a single recipe to print. Can't close windows by clicking upper left page—must quite the application. Can't save recipes to Document folder. Instructions and help[ page need work. Application concept and graphics are good but there are too many bugs to purchase this 1.0 version.
