I have an old but possibly still useful Nikon LS-1000 film scanner with

Is there anything readily available on the market that would allow me to
connect the scanner to either USB or FireWire on a recent Mac computer?
i would buy a suitably old Mac or PC; the PowerBook 1400 might be a fun way
to do it, but if you are going to use it a lot i'd go with something faster
like a PowerMac G4 or G5 with a stock or third-party SCSI card — i'd look
for a used one that includes OS X 10.4 or 10.5 (the maximum) install discs;
these are relatively easy to network with your other machines — you could
put it headless under your desk and control it from your primary computer
