Sure.  But to be satisfied with my scanner does not mean 
that I'm uninterested in other models.

Goodness, dickbo, what are you going on about?

If you are entirely satisfied with your "equipment," and 
are unconcerned with comparable products in the same 
genre, then by all means take your enjoyment elsewhere. 
But then, I might ask, why are you here?

Others might be curious to know the differences 
(if any) between the various models of scanners.  And 
surely, those who have not yet made a purchase, but are 
looking for a point of comparison, might benefit from 
the results of the proposed exercise.

So far, all I've gotten is lame excuses as to why not 
to do the comparison.  Armchair quarterbacks have 
offered advice on suitable image targets.  But not one 
volunteer yet.  Seems to me folks would rather argue 
& speculate than deal with facts.
