Not quite Linux (except that I'd love to be able to use it under
Linux) but it seems like something someone on this list might have
sitting around.

Does anyone have a batch slide scanner for sale or for borrow?

My dad has 6,000+ photographic slides that I'd like to digitize so I'm
looking for something like a Nikon Coolscan 4000 (or other) with a
batch auto-loader, or a Pacific Image PowerSlide 5000, or similar.

Ideally it'd be USB or Firewire, but I'd be willing to buy a SCSI card
if an old Coolscan were a good deal.

Thanks,
