Connect Cassette Deck to a Computer?


Anyone know how to connect a Cassette deck to a computer? I need to burn a CD of some songs I only have on cassette tape. However, I have no idea of how to connect the tape deck, what cords are needed. The cassette deck is a Denon with RCA outputs only. My computer is a powerful Dell with Windows XP Professional, it has lots of paralell ports and USB ports. I'm assuming this is possible. Help appreciated, no idea where to start.

Albert gave you good info.I simply run my Reel to Reel recorder from my RCA outs to my input of my soundcard.I do use a jack adapter from Radio Shack to run my patch cord thru.I have 2 different recording programs I utilize.I can use the recording studio that came with my Creative Labs Sound Card, and make sure the input is selected for the device used,or I use the Sound Forge 5.0 Studio Recording Program which I beleive list at $500.00,but can be downloaded for much less.This program will give you great copies of any master you may have.
