Anthony -

I bought the first model Nikon scanner as soon as it came out and upgraded 
to the LS-2000 when it came out.  I've had three computers during that 
time, but the Nikon scanners just keep on working.  I've never had a 
problem with them and have done thousands of scans - all of Leica 
photographs.  With the Nikons scanner and Epson printer, I hardly ever use 
my chemical darkroom.  I hope yours will be as reliable when you get it back!

Leically,

Tina
