We'd like to find a digitizer that we could hook up to a Sun, a Vax
or a Macintosh to scan pictures and such. At this point, we're most
interested in using it to create a database of images to include in
documents, but it seems likely that we'll think of more uses for it once
we get it. In other words, we're looking for a decent, general-purpose
digitizer to play with.
We'd prefer to have something with resolution near 300 DPI, though
more resolution is better than less. We've heard about and rejected
ThunderScan. The gory details of a product aren't particularly
important; we're more interested at this point in the generalities:
Manufacturer, model, resolution, price, an indication of how satisfied
you are with it.
Any information will be appreciated, and as usual, if demand warrants
it, I'll post a summary.
