I just got an assload of (photograph) slides from my Dad's house and I would like to get them into my computer. I know that people sell slide scanners, but they look like they're thousands of dollars. I've also heard that the slide adapters for flatbed scanners don't work well.

Does anybody have any ideas how I can scan these in? I have the feeling that what I'm really asking is "does anyone have a slide scanner that I can borrow for a month or two?"
