[pchelpers] Re: AVI to VHS

Thanks Jo,
This seems to me to be the best way, and probably the cheapest.  I don't yet
have a dvd player but if I can get one (to fill the last empty 5.25 slot in
my pc) with the right outputs, then I reckon I'll be in business.  Nero
version 5 came with my new burner but I don't really like it - it seems hard
to use.  I am used to Adaptecs easy cd creator which is so simple to use.
