I am not sure that I would feel comfortable suggesting a new focus for this
list.  It's Tony's baby, after all, so perhaps he should take the lead in
deciding if a change is needed, or if the list is worth maintaining at all.

As for me, scanners have not quite reached the "appliance" level of comfort.
I have a day job (which is not photography), so I only get to do scanning
when I have spare time.  There is still a lot that I don't understand about
this stuff, and that's why I peek over the shoulders of the experts here.
I'm still trying to understand the consequences of all the 3.82e76
permutations of options in VueScan...

Sometime in the next year, I hope to acquire a decent DSLR.  Perhaps the
ideal list focus for me would be "crusty old film photographers who want to
learn how to shoot digital, but still have a big backlog of slides to scan."
