The Big Think

Grrr… I’ve had a scanner for a few years now, and it’s a not by any means an obscure one. The Canon CanoScan N1220U is a sleek little silver scanner that was very popular a few years back, and being from Canon I thought it would be well-suported. Well here we are well into the OS X era and this thing still doesn’t have OS X drivers. Sure, I can install something from Canon to get it to work, but the fine print says I have to have Photoshop installed first in order for their drivers to function. GRRRR. I don’t want to have to buy an $800 piece of software so my $150 scanner can do what it’s supposed to. Get with the program, Canon!

Installed our new ceiling fan yesterday. The first one (downstairs) took me about 4 hours of fiddling. This one only took about 3 hours. Getting better at this, and it looks/feel great.
