Diane- The new scanner is going to go on my new dual-boot PC, Win 2000 & Win 98. I don't actually it running yet, but I've got a 7 or 8 year old Microtec that still runs, and the school has a bunch of Microtecs, mostly the various flavors of the X6, they all work well. HPs are also nice scanners, but the interface has been dumbed-down to the point they are hard to use.
