Jim, I use them all the time for color film processing and BW400cn, the 
scans have recently morphed into very low res jpegs between 500-700kb at 72 
dpi, basically a digital proof sheet and OK for most web apps, forget about 
printing them.
A few years back (in Florida) they provided tiffs as well as 1.0meg + jpegs 
but that's history. Now it's get less and pay more, about $8.75 per 24 exp 
roll without prints.  :-(  Maybe it's better in TN. Higher res from them not 
avail here.

Does Walgreen offer a high-resolution CD as an option?  Their online site 
hints at a resolution of about 1.6MB per image.  I seem to recall that the 
images that I got from a Wal-Mart CD were quite a bit larger.
