I thought I remember someone saying they had purchased a Mustek 1200UB on 
this list a while back (you maybe?).  I noticed because I have this 
model; I purchased it for being cheap and "Linux compatible", but was 
initially unable to get it to work.  After the holidays, I had some time, 
and finally got it running under Linux.  If you or anyone else is still 
trying to get a 1200UB running, I'd be happy to write down any details I 
can remember about the setup.
