Scanner
We purchased an Epson v700. And supposedly it comes with Adobe Photoshop Elements software so that's $65 we don't have to spend on software. Here's a detailed page about what it does and how well it does it (with photos): http://www.imaging-resource.com/SCAN/V700/V700.HTM

Laptop
We now own an Apple MacBook. Ours is the [|13" white MacBook]:
 * 2.1 GHz
 * Intel Core 2 Duo
 * 1GB DDR2 Memory
 * 120GB hard drive1
 * Intel GMA X3100 graphics

Tabletop Photo Studio
This device (which came with lights) should help us get better photos of our smaller artifacts without shadows. http://www.skymall.com/shopping/detail.htm?pid=102700431&cm_sp=Recommend-_-HotItems-_-HomePage102700431
