Advantages: Good quality, affordable price

Disadvantages: Very few

I bought my Agfa SnapScan Touch scanner to go with an i-mac, but it works with any USB PC. And it's so simple to use. It's an A4 600x1200 dpi scanner with removable handles in i-mac flavours. Four large buttons on the top allow you to open up the scanning software, scan to e-mail, scan to printer or scan to a file. Literally on-touch scanning that is simple for anyone to use - child or grandma.

For the price - between £100 and £125 - it makes good scans for home use, such as web sites, printing photos and storing magazine articles. It comes with unsophisticated OCR technology, and I'd recommend upgrading that to TextBridge, Pagis or OmniPage, but this scanner is perfect in every other way!
