[OM] Transparancy adapter- a waste of time?

I thought it might be fun on the cheap.  I bought a flat bed scanner with a
transparency adapter and man, it does some freaky things with slides.

First off, everything is at least 30 points blue.  Then the shadows have a
red cast while the midtones have a cyan cast.  I don't think this thing can
be tweaked into a usable tool.  It's a HP 4470c w/ XPA.  Maybe I'll return
it and spend the money at the pro lab?  A proper film scanner is too rich
for my blood.  This digital stuff is way expensive.
