  Thanks Jim, well they do say you're never too old to...

The best thing is I've found something that's fun to 
learn - particularly because I have Canon ScanGear AND 
Silverfast.

I was already familiar with an earlier version of 
ScanGear from my old Canoscan flatbed, so that was 
nothing really new, but Silverfast offers a bit more 
and PS Elements 8.0 was in the box , too..


The next step is to get my Rollei 6006 polished up and 
take it out for a walk :-)

Cheers
Douglas
