Hey, I am visiting an old friend and he wants to scan his collection of 35mm slides and negatives to digital. He is not very computer savvy and his computer is older. He wants a scanner than has a screen so you do most of the operations from the scanner rather than computer-side, and it should be easy to connect to the computer. Can anyone recommend me a model they like? I want to order it before I leave, and don't have the time or knowledge to do a ton of research. Thank you!

I'm thinking of buying him a new computer too but can figure that part out myself.

This couple, now in their 80s, were my surrogate parents when I lived in Los Angeles in the 80s/90s. When I visit, I try to do something useful for them - fix something, get them something. They are pretty precious to me.
