    Umax owners (victims?) rejoice! You no longer need to take snapshots of documents with your digital camera, the old USB scanner that's been rotting in your basement has a new lease on life!

    I thought Apple killed off SANE years ago! And what does the Standard Apple Numeric Environment have to do with scanners anyway??

    I guess anyone still using it is in SANE.
