I was thinking Art would have the most experience in this area, but I'll ask 
everyone.

My dad wants to use a computer to take all of his old open reel tapes and 
record them digitally (wav) and burn them to CD.  I am pretty sure it's 
possible by playing them on his old player, through some  sort of amplifier, 
then into the mic plug and use a program to record them.

I've never done something like this before.  All I have ever used sound for is 
to play music on the computer... that's it.  I have not a clue what to look 
at in the way of programs or setting it up.

Any advise, links, software suggestions, or HOWTOs would be welcome.  If I can 
do this for him in Linux, I might be able to sell him on at least trying it.
