Well actually the latest drivers are there but the new-improved ones will be a
bit longer. GRIN

I will have both later this week and I'll let you know. I have a 1280 set up
with piezography continuous inking system and the 2200 will be here probably
Tuesday since MLK's BDay is Monday.

I'm glad you are donating your equipment to a school. A great gift and much
better than some ancient computer with a mammoth 100 MB hard drive. :)

I really like the 1280 with Piezography.
