Neat Desk Scanner – Do I want one?

The other day I saw one of these advertised on the television and thought this is just what I need to get organized. One of my favorite pastimes is to look at magazines and tear out the parts of the magazine that I think I want to keep. I have hundreds of magazines pages of recipes that I want to make but never have the time to do it. I thought wouldn’t this machine be perfect for getting all those magazines recipes organized. I know, I know – if I just threw them away and then just stopped tearing up magazines then I would not have to worry about all these pieces of paper that I need do do something with. The Neat Desk Scanner sales for $380.00 on amazon.com. That is pretty steep for a scanner especially when I already have one of those combination scanner/fax/printers for my computer. I was especially envious when a critique on the Neat Scanner was done on one of the blogs that I keep up with. Of course, it got rave reviews – I would give it rave reviews if the company sent me one to try for free. I know, I know – it is just sour grapes because I have all these unorganized papers but not a new Neat Scanner to organize them.
