I hate to say this, but I own 4 of them! Three desktop units and one portable. They absolutely changed the way I do things.

I don’t have a ScanSnap. In the rare moments when I do have a hard copy doc, I use my fax machine and pdf the doc through MyFax or I use my company’s high speed fax-email machine.

The portable ScanSnap does look like a nice, portable option.

Thank you for the suggestion!

Sounds like you are right on top of things! Do you have a ScanSnap? Here is a post that I wrote that talks about a key piece of tech that I could not live without:

A great post!

I’m using a MacBook Pro as of January of 2009. I mentioned in a previous post that I absolutely love my Mac and will never go back to a PC. I too am using Pages & Numbers which work quite well & still offer the option of saving docs as Excel or Word docs.

My favorite, most powerful software that I’ve been using for ~3 years is Adobe Acrobat Pro. Within a PDF file, Pro allows me to delete pages, insert pages of pdfs, combine pdf files, number & title pages (IE: for a condo disclosure package; an important, time saving feature since frequently pages of say meeting minutes or a budget are not numbered). I rarely print any docs/forms since I’m able to organize content within Pro; Pro has allowed me to go paperless in addition to using Docusign.

Pro will also pdf all my emails in Outlook which I save for each transaction.

As for backing up my system, I’ve been using Sugarsync. I do need to check out Time Machine as well.
