Actually, SANE on windows could be an incredibly GOOD thing, assuming that<br>
|
|
vendors pay some attention.. Just think about it, a framework into which<br>
|
|
drivers can be written and used on practically ANY O/S.. And since it's non<br>
|
|
proprietary, there's a hope they'd find it non-threatending... <br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Also, some people HAVE to use windows for various reasons (corporate standards<br>
|
|
for example), why should they lose out from being SANEd??<br>
