Yes, Polaroid is in one of the Chapters, but so what? In the first place, it's a pretty safe bet that someone will pick up the various hunks of the business. In the second, it's highly unlikely you're ever going to need Polaroid's help. But even if you do, for the price you'll pay now for this terrific scanner - under $600 - by the time you do have trouble, if you ever have trouble, you will have paid for it several times over. B.
