I need to purchase a digital scanner to make high-quality digital images
of historical photos for publication.  Can anyone recommend one?

There is a further wrinkle.  I recently bought a Dell Inspiron laptop and
I stupidly told the clerk I did not need a CD burner, since I didn't know
what a CD burner was (I thought it was something for mass-producing
pirated movies).  So now I discover that I can't copy files to a CD from
the laptop.  Is there an external CD drive I can buy that will accommodate
the large files of digital images?  I'll need to send a CD to the
publisher with the images.  Naturally, all this has to be done on a crash
basis because my wife's publisher just called and said they need her
book's cover photos within a week or so.

Sorry to burden the list with a tech question, but it is historically
related.  Folks can reply off-line.

Many, many thanks,
