Yup... that was me... at least, i did ask and no one replied... till now :) Well, asked about the Nikon 4000ED in this very forum... was told it was great... no one mentioned the focus/sharpness problem... and now i'm stuck.... what makes matters worse is that i run a W2K, dual processor system and Nikon Scan keeps crashing.... configuring it run on a single PC is of no use. There was a very helpful suggestion from an individual (complete with all the necessary instructions) to boot as a single processor system whenever i want to run Nikon Scan. I'm getting more and more tempted to take him up on his suggestion. Its just a shame tho' that one expects so much from a company like Nikon and even the software doesn't work....
