All the answers have been correct, but if you already have a VHS
player you may want to go the route I did. I purchased a device
called EasyCAP which comes with some simple capture and video editing
software (as well as DVD burning) for less then $10 (plus
shipping). It connects to a USB 2.0 port with video, audio and
S-video inputs. Follow the instructions and you'll find it easy and cheap.
