[gui-talk] Accessible and user-friendly oCR software.

[Dane Trethowan]

Yes I have but Fine Reader came a distant last compared to Omnipage  
and Read Iris, both those 2 applications beat the pants of Fine  
Reader for accuracy.

I also wanted something that could be used on both my Windows and mac  
machines though (the way things are going here), the Windows systems  
will be ditched very quickly as I'm becoming more disalusioned with  
Windows the more  I use the Mac, so much faster, no crashing  
problems, more stable etc.
