It'll be hard to find one that's Linux compatible for less than $100US - most of those are parallel port units that are useless without Win9x. > I've studied the SANE webpage as well as the Hardware HOWTO, but have > difficulties locating any of the supported models in stores.

I would go for a HP SCSI scanner; I've heard that they come with an ISA SCSI card (Adaptec 1520, I think). > Also, real-life feedback might be quite illuminating.
