Lines: 16 Personally, I was most impressed by the $595 software (+hardware?) package (can't remember the company name offhand) that allows you to get *color* scanned images from your black-and-white scanner. How, you say? Pretty simply: they provide, along with the software package, 3 transparent primary color filters (like colored cellophane) that you put on top of your color image, one at a time. After 3 scans, PRESTO: a color image on your MAC! I saw a live demo with an HP scanjet, and it looked good. Observation: the MacConnection booth was a zoo - it looked like the trading floor of the NYSE on a busy day!
