No doubt your 4000 dpi scans are big. Works out to 800 images on a 40GB drive.
Uncompressed, I imagine you'd be looking at 250MB or only 160 images, after
that you go to tape...

Not sure I completely agree. Each image from my scanner is 50-60Mb TIFF
compressed! That's what I keep, but that's 10 shots per CD. It adds up.

Really, the whole discussion doesn't grok as there's no reason to compress
your working image files since they are usually not transmitted across a
narrow pipe like WEB graphics. I suppose there's some saving of disk space,
but so what? Pesonally, I use Genuine Fractals.
