Adobe just released Elements 4.0 for the Mac. The older versions had some really great Quick Fix options, and they're probably even better in this new one. It would be really easy for her to do some basic touchup work to the old pics without having to dive head first into the whole Photoshop thing. Get her an easy to use flatbed scanner and let her start. My recommendation is that the original copy of each scan be archived and that she work only on copies. A lot of people who start projects like this find they want to go back and rework the first pictures they edited once their level of skill has increased. It is possible to rescan, but that's the most boring part of the job so, as far as I'm concerned, it should be avoided whenever possible.
