You always had such a great and helpful attitude. Those are wonderful qualities that have no age limits. You, privately & graciously, helped me with my concerns of selecting the right equipment and gave me a lot of information on the best way to convert old VHS tapes to DVD's. My oral histories, family reunions, weddings, graduations and even funerals will be so important to my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Please allow me to thank you openly on this list for your help. It is amazing how mellow we can become and just how much insight we can gain about our ancestors way of life,and their concerns, as the decades go flying by us? Some days, research is the only thing that keeps me plugging along. Sure wished that you lived closer.

Stores such as Staples sell USB floppy drives which you can plug into one of your USB ports. I would copy what is on the floppies to a specific directory on your hard drive, then in a separate process burn them to your CD or DVD disk. You can likely get quite a few pictures on one cd disk.
