mac scansnap vs pc scansnap
I have both - a mac version at work and the pc version at home. I use my mac much more than my PC and would like to use both scansnaps with my Mac. I can do this (by downloading japanese Mac drivers for the PC version). However the software on the PC version is much more seamless - all your scans are copied to a thumbnail display program called scansnap organiser which allows you OCR or not as you wish. It makes Readiris and Acrobat look really clunky, is much quicker and produces much smaller files. I scan documents at work onto my Mac, bring them home and OCR them and copy them back onto the Mac.
Of course I suspect DevonThink would solve this problem, but I’m wedded to Eaglefiler. So now the only things I use my PC for are microsoft money and Scansnap organiser. For once, PC beats Mac.
