Anybody who uses this scanner with their Mac care to give me your opinion? I have seen reviews from PeeCee sites that look good, but I want to know about Mac users' experience with it. I would appreciate any feedback.

I've had this scanner now for about four months and I've been very impressed. The USB connection makes this scanner lightning fast.
My only gripe is the Instant print application which only works with an Epson printer, (I'm using HP970Cxi), otherwise highly recommended.
Go ahead, you won't regret it!!

I just purchased one from Buycom. They had the best price in addition to a $30 off coupon. Check the Buy.com site http://www.us.buy.com/comp/product.asp?sku=10222087

Extremely happy with the 1200U for 8 months now. Bear in mind that scanning and image editing eats up RAM - you can get by with 64MB, but I'd suggest a minimum of 128MB if you're going to do a lot of work, and 256+ would be preferable.

I did the buy.com deal and I also went to 512 MB of RAM. Thanks to all for the input. I am very pleased with the scanner results. It is great to have a forum like this with people such as yourselves willing to help out where needed.
