At the risk of upsetting the Scan community (particulary the satisfied customers) and with the advent of the additional forums can I suggest that a new forum is set up specifically concentrating on Scan.
At one point yesterday 7 out of the first 10 hardware postings related to Scan. At present 25% of the first page relate to Scan. I could appreciate it if Scan didn`t have a publisised `history` on these forums but they do - Try a search on Scan and see the results - This is what put me off Scan and quite frankly I am glad. All the problems cannot have been unforseen by those that visited this site before buying (and lets face it Scan are not a high street name so buying a Scan must mean people have done research on sites likes this).
I think it is excellent that Scan users have the opportunity to sort their problems out via these forums but please make it separate - This will then allow the rest of us to find information easier and quicker without postings going off the page within a matter of hours.
No prizes for guessing my machine by the way..........

The problem scan owners have is when the firmware is chnaged it fixes one thing and f*cks up another.............happens with a lot of Video cards.
SOme Radeon owners in the states are on the verge of filing a lawsuit!

Absolutely. What a good sound idea. A dedicated Scan forum. A Scan site would be even better.
There is a big following in the US for the Apex range of MP3/DVD players with many dedicated Apex sites and it is surprising this has not happened in the UK.
A site where full and detailed instructions on how to load firware together with approved firware downloads would be a good idea.
