Do they already have a printer? I assume so, but you never know. I ask because it might make more sense to get them an all-in-one printer/copier/scanner rather than a separate scanner. Does she have any old-fashioned slides? Some scanners will scan those too.

Unfortunately, they've already got a printer (for reasons unknown to me - they never use the damn thing). And fortunately, no old-school slides.

I think one below that Libbie suggested is actually the one she was talking about. I knew my flist could help a girl out!

This is the one David got me for Christmas last year and it's been perfect for scanning our pictures in because as long as there's a 1/4" of space between the pix, you can put 4 on the glass and it'll scan them as individual pix so it really saves time.

It's also last year's model, so there might be a newer one out there, but I love mine to bits.

Dude - I think that's EXACTLY what she was talking about! She was saying that her sister had one and it was great because you could put four on it, but it scanned each one individually. You are, in fact, the best ever!

Thank you!

Actually, David gets that title. He's the one that found it :D

I truly love the thing. I can scan a box full of pictures in a few hours. And the quality is flipping awesome.

I just ordered it and I'm pretty stoked. Even though between that, my brother's present and the shoes I randomly ordered, by credit card got a bit of a workout this evening. *g*
