I'm actually more pissed at all the companies who have stopped updating their drivers to work with Windows 7 or 8, FORCING me to keep one machine around that's running XP so that I can still use those devices.
Creative is a huge offender in that regard.
I had the same problem with my HP scanner/printer, which no longer made scanner drivers for my printer. It was ridiculous because the printer wasn't all that old. Nevertheless, since I rarely if ever needed to scan anything, I never bothered to replace it with a newer model.
Then during a free upgrade of Mac OS X, the preview program standard with Mac OS X, had generic scanner drivers that came with the system, and it scans perfectly now, after being un-usable for years. I wish I had known, and I would have upgraded my system a long time ago. (I rarely upgrade unless I have a specific reason to).
