I have a Astra 1220S and it is solidly built and works well with SANE. I'm particularly impressed with the Astra's "coil wrapped" scanbar connector, which is way better than those cheap flat plastic wire connectors currently sold in all those "bargain scanners".

Get SCSI!!!! Forget parallel port scanners.

Which SCSI card would you recommend? I'll eventually like to add a hard drive or two. And yes, the Astra 1220S sure is nice, especially for a price of $149 (US) from CDW. Hopefully my wife will take the constant hints and I'll get one for X-mas. ;-) Dana - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
