| dcdeke13's Full Review: AcerScan Prisa 640U Flatbed Scanner |
The average cost of the Acer 620 series is $70.00 but, you can usually find one as cheap as $30.00 if you look. I received my Acer scanner as part of a computer package deal and it was free after rebates. This is the BEST little scanner that I have ever had the pleasure of using! Because I buy and sell online, I needed a scanner to produce the pictures of my stock. I ended up having more fun sending pictures and scanning everything in sight on my desk! The scanner takes, at most, twenty minutes to get set up through your USB Port. I have Win98 so, I just put the program disk in my computer and, in a few minutes, I was scanning. The Acer scanner comes with a program called, "Ulead". This is a nice program. It allows you to create your own computer scrap book and assists with editing of pictures. The Acer also comes with a free program called, "Kia's Soap Box", which is another tool that helps to clean up pictures. The scanner program is very easy to use and comes with great easy-to-understand directions. It scans very clear, sharp pictures. I was able to enlarge wallet-sized pictures clearly to work on them. The only real difference between this scanner and the more expensive brand is that it uses a 32 bit picture instead of a 48 bit picture. Unless you are a professional...it is hard to see the difference in picture quality. The Acer, also, scans pretty fast. Some consumers may not believe that they could get such a fantastic scanner for so little in price. Believe it! This is the best scanner that I have ever used!
Anyone who wants a scanner would benefit from this scanner. I didn't choose it over any other competing brand because I got it for free but, I would have paid more than the suggested price for it because it is a wonderful scanner! Go Acer!
