Jill, if you are near a CompUSA, you may want to check out their ad this week (or you could do it online also). If your son will have any need for a transparency adapter, they have a CanoScan 3200F on sale for 129.97. it is a bit thicker than the canolide due to the transparency adapter that is built in. It is a 48 bit with 9600 dpi enhanced resolution (this is probably the interpolated resolution). Doesn't say what software is included. If you have a dot mac acct. check out the new photo editing software free from arcsoft and see if it will be enough for him currently. If so, CompUSA has the conolide 30 for $80 on sale. ____________________________________________ There are people who have money and people who are rich. --Coco Chanel
