Does this scanner work with Apple Macs?

See http://www.hamrick.com/vuescan/plustek_opticfilm_8100.html. According to the information I can find, the software provided does not work with the Apple Mac; however, Vuescan (whose software I use anyway because it's far superior to the software supplied) claims that the scanner can be used with a Mac. I suggest you explore the website and, if necessary, contact both maufacturers.

Is the 8100, 8100 SE and 8100 iAi the same scanner but with different software? I can't make sense of this.

Yes, I believe that is correct. I have the 8100 Ai and it comes with Silverfast 8 Ai Studio software, which I think is the top of the range - it's certainly very competent. The other versions of the software (8 and SE) are, I think, less capable. Have a look at the Silverfast website for more info...

Does anybody know what sensor this scanner ueed? Thanks

It has a CCD colour sensor and hardware resolution is 7200 dpi. I don't know who manufactures it but if you want more information try support@ plustek. com or the Plustek website.

will it scan 2/14 x 2/14" positiveslides

NO However Plustek do have a scanner for medium format - although it costs over £1500! But if you are talking about standard slide mounts - which are 2" square - then the holder does accept them. But the film format is 135 (or less, eg 126 or half frame)
