Records and 8-Tracks

PChippy and I are looking to buy something that will allow us to make records and 8-tracks into .mp3s. Yoav suggested that we get an analog to digital converter and feed the sound through our computer.
.
Any suggestions? Equipment, prices?
.
PS-- don't worry, we won't throw out the vinyl.
PPS-- don't worry, we know all about copyright law.

I think that there's some kind of portable MP3 player that allows direct analog-to-digital recording.....iRiver, mebbe?

I've been shopping for an MP3 player and may go for a Zen Extra, FWIW.

the tried and true <a href="http://reviews.cnet.com/Turn_LPs_into_digital_media_files___Begin_recording/4660-7899_7-6219310.html">Cnet</a> rarely steers me in the wrong direction on a/v types of stuff I wonder about....
