...I would've thought VHS would be a snap. Looks like I'm going to need a whole helluva lot more storage than the 160GB I ordered with this G5. Every one of my VHS tapes has about 2 hours recorded. This is turning out to be a monumental project! Many of those tapes are 15 or 16 years old, which is why I want to preserve them for the kids. It would have also been nice to condense many hours worth of tapes to make a Christmas compilation that could be written to a couple DVDs. Sounds like that would involve an unmanagable file with my paltry storage. Wish I'd did more homework before ordering this MAC! I thought 1GB of RAM and 160GB storage was way more than I'd ever need.

Thanks for enlightening me,
