No.
Linux can't run it.
In fact there are a lot of popular programs Linux can't run.
Linux is great at running vi and emacs though.
And wait till you see the spinning cube!

Why bother?

This is a dead simple generic task that does not require some unecessarily
specialized tool.

Does Linux run the thousands of anti-virus and anti-malware applications
necessary to try to protect Windows?

Afraid not. Nor do I get to run the hundreds of registry cleaners and
editors in Linux.

Oh brother. It amazes me why people with no useful information feel compelled
to post some rubbish. "Compiling", evidently indicative of some
arduous and overwhelmingly threatening circumstance, is unnecessary.

The scanner works fine in Linux. The "neat" software does not function
in linux. Xsane, sane and simple scanner all acquire images from this
hardware
without incident.

Please avoid offering expert medical or mechanical repair advice in the same
fashion.

Linux will auto detect the scanner easily using xsane and scan packages- Simplescan is a super easy Linux scanner program. Linux also provides a wide array of spreadsheet accounting as well as dedicated accounting programs all standards compatible with Quickbooks and other programs... and all 100% free of charge and very easy to use with huge user base of supporters ready to help when needed. In addition to all of that Linux is rocksolid strong against intrusion helping to assure that all of the vital personal or business information that you scan in will not end up in the hands of the bad guys.

He also hopes to be able to read a web page because that product,
Neat System is far more than just a scanner. It allows you to
organize, categorize receipts, business cards, reports etc and then
import the data or contacts into other programs and so forth.

The user can then search for data easily.
Basically it's a high powered electronic filing cabinet designed to
eliminate piles of paper and allow easy access.

Far more than a scanner but since they don't have a Linux version
the advocates try to equate it to a basic scanner which it is not.

The Neat Digital Filing System

Your important information lives in different worlds. The paper
world is cluttered with receipts, contracts, mortgages – all of it
hard to find, and even harder to use. In the digital world you have
e-receipts, attachments, and other files in all sorts of places.
Neat solves this problem with the most comprehensive Digital Filing
System available – transforming paper into useful digital
information, and giving your scattered digital files a home.

When all your important information is in one organized place – easy
to find, use, and share – that's just Neat.

It's an interesting idea but something I would expect that most
people would quickly get bored with. Current technology already
makes the idea of scanning paper reciepts or business cards or
reports a little quaint.

Have you not "met" Creepy Chris? He boasts about his Windows related
income here yet sucks up and pretends he's a Linux "User/developer" here
in the freetime his Windows income allows him. As you'll have noticed he
rarely reads full reports and cheery picks things he reposts here to
suck up and show off. He's called "Creepy Chris" for a reason.

Funny how that POS "Hadron" attacks Ubuntu and "freetards", but, if
someone should say that the Apple Corp isn't giving enough back, he
goes on the attack to defend Apple.

"Who the fuck are you to tell Apple or the like what they should give
