AGreed. I've got about 30000 slides in a file cabinet. Maybe only 500
of them scanned. The bulk are not worthy of scanning UNLESS I have a
specific reason to scan something in particular. If I was to digitize
everything and throw away the slides, it would eliminate having to
move a file cabinet, but that's the only gain for me.
