However, it seems that no drivers for Win XP are available for my Epson Stylus Colour 600 printer, or Epson GT-5000 scanner. This meant that I have had to install Win 98 on the new machine. I would have thought that a reputable company would have pointed out to their prospective customers that the availability of drivers for their ancillary hardware should be checked, before purchasing a machine with Win XP installed. However, perhaps I am naive to think that this should take precedence over the alternative of the possible loss of a sale. 'Caveat Emptor'(Let The Buyer Beware) certainly was appropriate in this case, and presumably others. It seems I shall just have to control my frustration until the relevant drivers do become available, unless someone knows of alternative drivers that may suit (Epson doesn't.) Anyway, I thought it worth while to publicise this experience in the hope that it might save someone else from duplicating it.	Guest (0)
