I figured that I would not nework, as I am not sure it is warranted with
the low numbers of regular patients I have . I would have two laptops (
one for me and one for the hygiene room ) and we'd dance around each
other with them. Then, I'd back up both to a removable harddisk or a
tape system like you have.

What about having two scanners; one on each laptop? That could work, I
think. If not, the computer running the scanner could be brodcasting it
to the other two computers, which would no longer have to be laptops.

How does that sound?

Thanks
