[ALUG] VCRs + VHS to PC/DVD

It is very much a long shot, but is there anyone out there with any knowledge of copying VHS tapes to a PC for archiving purposes? I have a fair number that I need to archive sooner rather than later so any guidance would be brilliant. On a side note, anyone happen to have a spare VCR I can loan/purchase? Preferably with S-video output. Cheers, Steve
