Looking for a scanner under $200 that can do 1200DPI or better, I can search all the net sites myself, just wondering if anyone has any personal experiences with any decent scanners.

i have the previous generation fo this
HP Scanjet 4570c.
I paid like $160 for it 2 years ago, and it does everything i want out of a scanner.
HP also has $100 scanners that do 2400x2400, and $80 ones that do 1200x1200.
regardless of which model you get, i'd recommend HP from my personal experience.

Kylere.... just MAKE SURE it has the "De-Screen" ability. This allows you to scan printed pieces without have a screened Moire' (IE translates the screen from a printed piece). There are ways around it (gaussian blur). Especially if you ever plan on using teh scans for commercial printing. If your just going for web shit, dont worry about this.
Just some suggestion from a veteran pre press geek =P
