I just recently unearthed an old turntable with the expectation of transferring vinyl to digital. I got a Card Deluxe by Digital Audio and Sound Forge software. My initial results were very encouraging, so I ended up getting a used Linn LP12 (still thinking I was going to transfer vinyl so I could listen to it on my cd player). After much practice, I got to the point where the results were very good. But at that point, I started to realize how good the original vinyl was. Although I have not forsaken digital, vinyl is clearly my source of choice and I haven't listened to digital in 3 months! (Except for in my car where the vinyl to digital cd's are nice).
I don't want to fuel the digital/analog flames, so I will acknowledge that digital does have significant advantages, and I can understand why someone would still prefer digital. And the technology to transfer is very good and very accessible at a reasonable cost. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
Of course, if the process also reintroduces you to vinyl - all the better!
