Re: filmscanners: Nikonscan and dual processors



I use NikonScan regularly with a dual-processor system under Windows NT, and
I've never had any problem with it at all.  I'm only using version 2.5, however
(the last version that will still run under Windows NT).  Since later versions
will not run under NT, it sounds like they really rewrote something, which is
usually a bad sign.
