You should check out the new
iMac with the built in DVD burner and awesome
iDVD software. As a bonus, you can edit your Home Movies with
iMovie which comes with the iMac. There is a device that will allow you hook up an old VHS VCR to the Mac. You can read about
here.

I agree on the Mac route. Over the last year I have been archiving iMovies to DVD (yeah OK they are only 3 min long) and it's lots O fun. If I didn't have to work and I could play all day with no cares (sigh) I would still be playing movie maker with all the sound and video editing capabilities of iMovie.
I'm not up on the latest but my understanding is that the latest and greatest Mac pretty much will allow one to make their own DVDs (not as noted above to be be confused with videos on CD). Although one might need an analog/digital converter to play plain vanilla VHS tapes from an analog player. I shoot all video on Sony Digital 8 so no converting for moi.

Hey !! The new iMac Rules, it was so easy too transfer VHS TO DVD on iMovie. So cool to think I took a 16 YO VHS Tape and now it's saved forever, for just the price of a Blank DVD!
