I can't believe it took becoming a Mac user to discover this application. I downloaded the trial version on a Mac, launched the application, and without issue scanned documents natively on a UMAX scanner that hasn't had new Apple drivers since 1998. TWAIN drivers are bypassed entirely, which seems to be more effective in terms of program speed. Scanning via VueScan on OS X, with UMAX, is faster than it was when connected to an old G3 using the UMAX drivers. Most of us can get by with the basic preview, crop, and scan solution at the core of this application. For those of you who are power users, I'd list all the cool features, but the list is simply too long. Lets just say, if you wanted to configure something about your scanner, this app can probably do it. Registration permits you to use the application on up to four machines. The trial version watermarks scanned images. [Win/Mac OS/Linux $49.95]
