I have had it recommended to me to set up a dos virtual machine to run
legacy software, though never tried.  I'm sure someone on this list

Both have demo versions and I'm happy to try them out on your slides. (I'm already partial to VueScan because it has a Linux version, but some say that SilverFast can achieve superior results.) Would you like to meet at NB sometime next week to try these out?
