My father has connected an HP Scanjet to his Mac SE and has been very
happy with it.  They use it to scan pictures for use in newsletters and
brochures and to scan resumes which are converted into text with some
great OCR software.  It's been a real boon to his business, saving hundreds
of hours of retyping resumes and saving lots of money because they don't
have to deal with a printer for the newletter photos.

The HP Scanjet comes with a SCSI interface (buy your own cable) and
scanning software (both as a standalone application and as a desk
accessory).  I don't remember the technical details in terms of
scanning quality but I think the HP Scanjet and Apple Scanner are about
the same.

(BTW, I'm trying to give an objective evaluation even though I work for
HP.  My old roommate works for Apple so I'm pretty pro-Apple.  Besides,
they throw better parties.)
