Mine works great with the SCSI in my Mac which is another SCSI
implementation. It works without complications with the other 3 devices on
the chain. --A little cheaper too because of the lack of need for an
auxiliary card. Also not much need to go somewhere else for software unlike
the HP.
A fellow by name of Tony Sleep in the UK has a film scanner comparison on
his page that is very well done and the Minolta Dimage Scan Dual acquits
itself very well. Certainly a Best Buy.
