HP scanners on Linux.

[Bill Campbell]

Ted, Collins:

May I quote you in my correspondance to HP?

I just got a reply to my last e-mail saying:
  ``Although this service is provided as a means of technical support for
  our customers, we appreciate any feedback about our company's products
  and services.  The e-mail message you sent has been reviewed and
  forwarded to the proper individuals.  We value your comments.''

It so happens that I'm typing this an an HP Visualize P-Class running SuSE
8.2 which is standing next to another HP Visualize P550, right beside my HP
4M Plus with duplex attachment.  I think that qualifies me as a customer
(not to mention the HP printers, print servers, etc.  which I've sold or
installed over the last 20 years or so :-).
