Scanners - what should I look for?

[micki76]

I'm buying a scanner and need to know what's desirable and what I don't need. I have a PC and use Windows 98. I've looked on Ebay and have seen several scanners with several different options and I’m just clueless.

Any help would be appreciated!

All the Epson scanners are very good. I use a Perfection 636 but they have newer ones. Mine is 4 years old, an antique by now, still going strong. They come with a lot of photo manipulation software. Go to the Epson Website,
http://www.epson.com and you can look at the compatibility issues.
