We purchased the 1200s a couple of months ago (to replace a very faithful
HP that finally gave up the ghost). Very nice unit. Much lighter, and maybe
then less rugged, than the old HP, but we treat these things carefully
anyway. Very quick with full color scans, etc. Just $300 or less, I think,
if you don't get the full copy of Photo Shop included. I'm a serious HP fan
and am amazed to find myself recommending the Astra - but we really like it.
