It's likely that more memory - up to 2G -  will be a very large help.

I'm becoming convinced that my main computer is too lite for the task
(scanning, PS, and especially Qimage). 

Sony Vaio Pentium IV 512MB 2.8G . And 2 external 120G HDs. 

Maybe the Mac G5 enthusiasts have a point. 

The next generation of scanners (in a year or two, after Nikon V and
9000 and Minolta 5400) will demand a lot more horsepower. 

How much ram do you have on your XP machines? 

What's your setup, what are your plans?
