Is anyone using Opera Browser? Are you able to view the MrSid viewer at Ancestry.com?

I have an HP 7110 OfficeJet all-in-one which prints, copies, and scans. It is a legal-size, flatbed-style model, and it does include a document feeder. (I believe there is also a model that includes the fax feature.) I've had very good luck with all three features of the 7110. A couple months after purchasing this model, I even added the two-sided printing accessory, which has been great ... and saves on paper! Hope this info is helpful.

That happened to me with my combo Xerox when I was a newbie. It was a beautiful machine, cost $349, and I especially liked it because my desk space is limited. When the paper feeder went on the blink, it would have cost $149 to have it fixed, plus UPS cost to send it to the factory. It still sits in my spare room.

Thanks, Sybil. I'm still running Win98 and the more I hear about the new versions the happier I am to stay with the old. Never a virus or worm either in 6 yrs I've had my PC. No problems at all actually, and I belong to m-a-n-y mailing lists and also do a lot of online ordering of merchandise. However,I am fanatical in keeping my anti-virus protection updated so maybe that helps.

You may have a problem. Legal sized documents are too large for most of the scanners available unless you go to the more expensive ones. I have an old Microtek that I just hate to give up because it does do legal sized documents. But it has a passthrough paralell interface so I am running it on my OLD Windows 95 machine with 16MB of RAM. I do not remember seeing a 4 in 1 combination with a legal sized paaten. But, I don't look at the more expensive ones anyway. Alfred D.
