Key Features
Different scanners use different interfaces (basically wire jacks and connections) to connect to other devices, such as your computer. Some interfaces are able to transmit data faster than others - but the most important factor is making sure the interface of the scanner matches that of the device you want to use it with.

Platform is a term synonym for Operating System (e.g., Windows or Macintosh). It is important that your scanner match the operating system of the computer you intend to use it with.
Color depth is also known as "bit depth". This is the number of bits used to represent each pixel. The greater the bit depth, the more colors that can be seen in the image. Bit depths of 24 (equal to about 16 million colors) and higher are considered especially high. 8-bit color is 256 colors, and 16-bit color represents about 65,000 colors. While 8 is probably low for the average consumer, 24 is probably plenty.

Max. gray depth is the maximum number of shades of gray that the scanner can reproduce. Like color depth, gray depth is measured in bits. This is a measurement of how well the colors are rendered, i.e. how "accurate" the colors are in comparison to the scanned original.
