You can figure out the required number of machines based on the scan time per slide. I believe it takes my scanner about 2 minutes for a high-quality scan. At 30 per minute (we won't figure in the stack manipulation procedures), into 6 million. ?That's let's see ... 400-plus 8-hour days for a single machine. But, the good news is you won't have to shave.

I'd like to batch scan them, maybe in batches of 10, six million at once is not practical, they don't all fit in the same room at once.. What should I get?
