    Customer Reviews:
    Good, too many things to install
    The scanner itself is excellent, and having the power directly from the USB port is great, one cable less!!
    On the minus side, Mac installation is not as straightforward as most hardware devices for a Mac (I mean, no installation at all!). Here, you have to install 5 software packages (yes, five), which is so an overkill for such a simple device.. Besides, the software has no integration with Mac software suites; it would be ideal just to use iPhoto to get scanned pictures..

    Good Product
    I did not used it very often. The best thing is it is very compact, save a lot of space. Moreover, it only use USB port for power supply. One shortcoming is when you save the scanning pictures as Jpeg, it is a little slow. However, it is much faster to save as PDF files.

    N/A???
    I was very excited to have purchased this scanner–it has been on my wishlist for many years now and I could finally afford it out of my own pocketbook ^_^ However, it turns out that this scanner is defective. I thought I was being technologically incompetent–I continued receiving the same error messages–but the Canon rep I spoke with today said it is a hardware problem and not a software or computer problem. And they are issuing me a new one under warranty (So I don’t have to pay a cent). Right now it is Friday, and he said to expect it sometime around Monday. Warranty or not, the Canon customer service was AMAZING, and to be honest, I am not angry at all, albeit a bit disappointed that I couldn’t use my scanner sooner. After all, sometimes these things do happen, right? So I plan to come home early as I can on Monday and try out my new scanner. And then I’ll finally be able to write a review on its performance! So take this 2-star review lightly until then…

    NATICK, MA –

    Etnus LLC, the world’s leading provider of
    debugging solutions for high-performance computing environments, announced
    today that it has added support for TotalView’s powerful memory debugging
    capabilities to the Cray XT4 supercomputer product line. TotalView is the
    primary memory debugging solution for this architecture.

    TotalView is the world’s most advanced debugger on Linux, UNIX, and Mac OS
    X. It enhances developer productivity by simplifying the process of
    debugging data-intensive, multi-process, multi-threaded or
    network-distributed applications. TotalView’s interactive memory debugger
    helps find and eliminate memory problems as code is debugged. Since memory
    debugging capabilities are built-in, it is less intrusive than other memory
    analysis tools and eliminates the need to switch tools and re-compile.

    “TotalView has been a valuable tool used by many Cray customers to debug
    their applications rapidly and effectively,” said Steve Scott, Cray’s chief
    technology officer. “We believe that integrating TotalView’s memory
    debugging capabilities into our Cray XT4 system will further improve our
    customers’ productivity.”

    The Cray XT4 system offers a new level of scalable computing for single,
    powerful computing systems handling the most complex problems. The system
    is purpose-built to meet the specialized needs of capability class
    high-performance computing applications, to operate efficiently and
    reliably at large scale.

    “State-of-the-art debugging technology is critical for users of systems
    like the Cray XT4 supercomputer, because this platform is used for
    data-intensive applications such as high-end modeling and simulations,”
    said Rich Collier, CEO of Etnus. “With the addition of TotalView’s memory
    debugging capabilities, developers will be able to reduce their production
    times by finding even the most difficult memory allocation errors and leaks
    quickly.”

    TotalView’s sophisticated product features, including parallel process
    acquisition and control; advanced breakpoints and watchpoints; flexible
    display capabilities; and ability to test fixes on the fly, enable
    programmers and developers to shorten the development cycle for getting
    multi-core applications to market. The memory debugging support built-in to
    TotalView allows users to watch for memory leaks, monitor the amount of
    memory a program uses, and track how it allocates and frees memory so that
    developers are able to stop execution, check for problems, test fixes, and
    then continue debugging.

    About Etnus

    Etnus is the world’s leading provider of debugging and analysis solutions
    for the multi-core age. Etnus products enable software developers to

    running on development machines with single, dual core, multi-core, or
    multiple processors.

    The company’s flagship product, TotalView, enhances software development
    productivity by eliminating much of the frustration, delays, and headaches
    involved in debugging data-intensive, multi-process, multi-threaded, or
    network-distributed applications. Recognized worldwide as the gold standard
    for debugging in high-performance, distributed or cluster computing
    environments, the award-winning TotalView is used by some of the world
    largest supercomputers.

    For more than two decades, Etnus products have been at work in research
    institutions, government laboratories, and technical computing centers, as
    well as commercial enterprises in the financial services,
    telecommunications, biotech, aerospace, weather prediction, film special
