 What _is_ a transparancy adapter, anyway? The scanner I got is used and
pretty old -- it claims 1200dpi, though it's difficult to tell for sure if
it does, because I don't have any originals that I know have that much
detail.. I don't think I'll be able to find one for the scanner I've got
(old Agfa Snapscan), but is it something I could make up out of stuff?

 Hm, very good point..
