Hi Mike:
 
Sheesh..given the heat flying about on BEE-L, you might darw a comment
or two with your "rich man" comment.
 
I too would *love* a scanner, but I am retired and of limited funds. I
might luck out soon as I am trying to work a swap deal with one of my
son's friends - they are in the 15-16 yr old age group.
 
However, you know what you might want to check out is the Online Auction
Web Site - susbcribe to it and check out how it works and watch how it
operates. You can find it at Http://www.online.com
 
Just maybe, you might discover a good buy!
 
Hang in there - healthy bees is worth more than coins in hand!
