1/20    So I want to get a scanner (prefer 1394 but USB2 would be okay) with
        document feeder (I want to archive my records electronically).  Any
        suggestions?  What price range should I expect?
        \_ do you want a flatbed with doc feeder?  HP has one, but not
           highly rated by Amazon users.
           \_ That would be fine.  What's the model?  Was it the 5550C (I found
              that one on Amazon--the complaints are about the software
              basically making the feeder usless)?
              \_ HP ScanJet 5590
              \_ Also Xerox DocuMate 510

        seems like I get these every 6 months or so from HP.  Do all drives
         have these kind of issues and I only see the ones from HP because
         they are diligent about reporting/fixing these issues?  Or do they
         suck?   (It's not actually their drives so...)  Also, do I really
         need to bring down my production infrastructure and fix all this

        \_ Not good for hardware to power it up and down all the time. I
           always leave all my computers on all the time, except for
           laptops which I allow to sleep (but still be powered).
           \_ How is this the case for desktops but not laptops?  I don't see

1/12    Good news everyone! You get to enjoy another month of instability, since
        the manufacturer dropped the ball and the case+power for the server we
        ordered on 12/8 has been delayed to 2/16! Yay! --t
        \_ where did you order this?
        \_ This is why you buy from HP or Dell and not some White Box POS.
           It used to not be worth the premium to pay for a name brand,
