I think both Epson and Canon make good scanner.

The Canon N1240U is an excellent scanner that includes Adobe Photoshop Elements (the enthusiast version of the professional Adobe Photoshop 6).

Canon is the way to go. Both excellent performance and terrific appearance

Never trust in any unknown online vendors!!!

I have a Canon N670U. I had to buy it in a hurry for a project. It isn't the fastest and doesn't have a 14in scanbed. It is slim, powered via USB and rugged. It fell to the floor (bare terrazo) when my rickety desk collapsed. It is still working. I was convinced I had destroyed it. I just wish that Canon made one with a longer scan bed.

Signature? We don' need no stinkin' signature!

Yeah, I have the N1240U which costs a little under $200USD now. It's an amazing scanner. It uses no separate power supply (it takes power from the USB port), it's fast, it has excellent quality (although at higher resolution it picks up little particles of dust on the glass, and it includes Adobe Photoshop Elements.
