I should find and scan my photos from "The Magic of Myth" at the National Air & Space Museum in DC, circa late 90s.

Of course that means remembering to take the photos over to my parents, as I don't have a scanner anymore. The only one I had was old enough that no Windows 7 64-bit drivers exist, so I threw it out.... but I can't seem to find scanners that aren't part of printers anymore, and my printer still works just fine.

Anyway, I should scan those.

I recently found myself in the same boat with my Dad's old scanner which I wanted to keep using as it's bigger than the one in my new printer. Either I keep WinXP on the old latop, or donate the sucker. Forced obsolescence sucks.

All my Star Wars pics from '87 were shot on 126 film, which the few places that still process film near me can't deal with.

If you're in the U.S., Fry's Electronics still sells standalone scanners.
