Hi I’m looking for two things
1. An easy and fast way to scan (take pictures) of my notes/figures/drawings so i can put them on my computer.
2. A smart document management system for science classes at university. I often make good notes and drawings on paper but it would be nice to have an easy way to retrieve all the drawings on my computer and a fast way of storing and organizing them. It takes forever to use my old scanner to scan my documents.

I would appreciate some suggestions. I'm using windows 7 by the way :)

Your problem is a little confusing. Is it the scanner takes too long or are you concerned about organizing after scanning?
