I am getting ready to put down some $$$ toward an image input device. Question
is, should I go for a scanner (the Thunderscan in particular) or a video
digitizer. I feel that the digitizer will give me greater flexibility; the
question is at what cost to image quality.

I would like to hear from folks who have experience with both so that I can get
an educated opinion as to the pro's and con's of each. Also, if anyone out there
knows of an article either comparing scanner vs digitizer, or comparing the
available digitizers (such as Koala MacVision or the MacMagic) please point me to
the magazine and issue I can find it (them) in.

Thanks in advance.
