I just want to add a parting shot to this thread. |

I have several scanners and laser printers, all USB, that have not |
| 11 |
been supported under Microsoft Windows for some time. No MS drivers are |
| 12 |
available for these devices. On various MS Windows forums many people |
| 13 |
ask in vain about obtaining such drivers. |

|
| 15 |
But under Linux all my scanners and printers continue to work without problem, |
| 16 |
and most likely will continue to work for many years to come. |

This just underscores the difference between proprietary and open source |
| 19 |
software. |
