Don’t get what I’ve got, it sucks! :)

I got mine when it was already obsolete because at the time I needed
SCSI to go with my obsolete computer, and this scanner just happened
also to have USB. Using it with SCSI now would be much messier, though
perhaps would work better. I was replacing another, earlier UMAX
scanner that sucked so powerfully that the computer room had no air
left in it.
