< great big snip > This topic has certainly brought lots of reaction and my thanks to all. My intention is to buy a new scanner which I want to use for scanning photographs prior to carrying out restoration work. I use Ubuntu 8.10, GIMP and XSane.
The book I have says that I should look for a scanner that captures at least 10 bits of data and has an optical resolution of 600 pixels per inch. I don't have lots of money and this interest in restoration is just as a hobby and not a business. So, could some kind person guide me in the right direction, please.
