Advantages: Beautiful print quality scans-Extremely easy to use software. Quick copy utility. Extremely easy installation and setup of software. Disadvantages: Scanner is exceptionaly large,
...When scanning 35mm photos I don't think any scanner can exceed the quality of the Acer. If you're scanning for web pictures then a 300dpi resolution is more than adaquate for a quality picture and the scan time is very short. If you want to scan at a higher resolution for prints this option is available, along with different scaling settings, and a multitude of other settings. All of which are easy to understand and work exceptionaly well. For pictures this scanner can't be beat. Another plus is the fact that it can be purchased on Ubid.com. Most bids on it don't exceed £40 and with shipping the total cost was £60. Then there's a £10 rebate, There is an OCR Utility with the unit, maybe someone else can shed some light on this as I don't use it. It was purchased mainly for scanning pictures and copying text (unchanged). Another software...

...This scanner has a TWAIN compliant driver, and can be accessed directly from any program that can support it, thus allowing you to scan directly into the application. It gives a good reproduction of the original image and is as quick as any that I've used. A full A4 preview comes up an under 10 seconds. The driver has some nice features that allow you to make simple alterations the image at scan time and settings for different types of paper being scanned. It comes with a software bundle including photo editing and OCR software both of which I found OK to use. If I had to make some negative comment, it would not be about the scanners capabilities, but more around the SCSI implementation. The reasons for this appear to be cost related and aren't really a problem as long as you are aware of them before you spend your money. The connectors...

...noise.
Acer 620S has shown good productivity (that, probably, not in the last queue is called to use of the interface SCSI) and excellent results of scanning. Especially it is necessary to mark quality of scanning of color negatives and convenient accessories for mounting transparent originals.
Acer 620S is a convenient scanner with good productivity and excellent quality, but it has a bit high price....

This Acer Extensa 5220 laptop is ideal for anyone on a budget. However don't be fooled by the low price, this laptop still has power. The Intel Celeron processor is more than powerful enough for any home or student.
