My second HP scanner (SCSI) gave me a hard time all day long yesterday. I need a scan to archive some documents on a bi-monthly basis, nothing spectacular, just pdf files conversion. Didn't want to waste another day trying to get it to work. The SCSI host card was suspect and as these cards cost the earth nowadays, I decided to look into our local Office Depot shop. Looked for a scanner only, but then noticed an HP little hideous looking machine which is an all in one: Printer, scanner, copy machine for just 200 NIS (~30 pounds) with USB interface. Model DeskJet F2280 So I bought it, installed it and did all the scanning that I needed. Just to think that my previous scanner cost me at the time about 30 times as much made my blood boil. And that was only for a scanner !!!! | ||

I have a Canon printer which is quite good. I bought the new machine mainly because of the scanner, and it will take some time before I will need to replace the HP cartridges. | |||

| When I was a kid, my parents told me how everything was so cheap in the old days. Funny how things turned around for us: We can tell our children how everything was so expensive in the good old days. | ||
