I'm not ignoring the rest of your post, as it is all very helpful and very much appreciated, but I want to concentrate on the above bit. In the past hour this comment has inspired me to actually look at the laptop, read the manual for once, note the 'line in' hole, download audacity, download lame, and convert some vinyl to audacity file, then to mp3, then burn it to cd. Pretty basic I imagine, but I never knew it was that easy. It sounds OK too. I did it just connecting the headphone socket on the hi-fi to the line in socket on the pc. Thank you so much. Fantastic.
