Hi there,
We all know by now that freebsd is one hell of an OS, and we hear every
now and then of success stories using this beasty, but does anyone know
if anyone in the FreeBSD world  is running a scanner and an OCR
(optical character Recognition) software.  I am typing in millions of
characters every year, and planning to put some books online in the
next few years, this would make my life PARADISE, and help me NUKE the
M$drive that I'm still keeping for:
1. M$ Word
2. M$ PowerPoint
3. Scanner Application & OCR.

Some time ago I have asked this list for scanner support, and for a
decent word processor, until I finish downloading the 60 Megs WP 8.0,
can't tell you that I am very happy.

On the Net, FreeBSD is a Real Giant, fast downloads, networking layer
is very robust, security is very hihg (relative thing though).
