Scan and edit?  doubtful.

this is no problem... 

I would suggest the program that I use.  Deluxe Paint II+  It is quite simple
to use, and the interface is quite easy to use.  It doesn't have a scan
function or anything like that, but can use several VGA modes.  You can convert
from 680by 400  easily if you simply grab what you want in the frame and then
resize the page.    Coloring Grey scale images are quite simple as well.  Set
up a normal gradient of color and then set the stencil to cover the area you
want with the particular grey.  16 color grey is definately ENOUGH greys!  
You will definately have to still touch up the images, but it does work.  If
you have any additional questions, let me know and I will try and help.  I have
been experimenting quite a bit with different scanners (flat bed and logitech
hand held)  Perhaps I can add more details if I knew more specifics.

Don't hit the computer!  It simply isn't healthy!  :)
