Re: Scanner/Digitizer

Alan,

Yes, I do write software, as a matter of fact, that is what I do for
a living. It is the hardware side that I am a little challenged on.

Like you, I would like to get a reprint of the strictly IC article. I
spoke with the MAXnc people about 6 months ago and at that time they
claimed that their digitizer probe ans software would not work
without the rest of their hardware???
