I am getting ready to put down some $$$ toward an image input device. Question is, should I go for a scanner (the Thunderscan in particular) or a video digitizer. I feel that the digitizer will give me greater flexibility; the question is at what cost to image quality. I would like to hear from folks who have experience with both so that I can get an educated opinion as to the pro's and con's of each. Also, if anyone out there knows of an article either comparing scanner vs digitizer, or comparing the available digitizers (such as Koala MacVision or the MacMagic) please point me to the magazine and issue I can find it (them) in. Thanks in advance. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Howard Moskovitz AT&T Bell Labs @ Liberty Corner, NJ ihnp4!io!howard
