[I know better than to even TRY to get this mailer to reply directly to Babcock.] One option is the Ciarcia artice in Byte about 6-10 months ago. He had a digitizer (at least 256x256, probably better) for a couple of hundred dollars. It looked like a good design, complete with frame-grab. And it would hook up to anything with an RS-232 port! Kit of parts available, but even a wired assembled, tested unit (if I remember correctly) was under $400. I also have seen a few other units that work with RS-232 interface. [Dont use them myself; I digitize with a ComputerEye digitizer that does full color directly into the 68000 in an Atari ST. For $149 the ComputerEye (with DIGISPEC software) is a really impressive beast.]
