For the software, PC or Apple?

Remember that if you want to do a really proper conversion you'll need whats called an A/D Converter (like a Canopus for example).
Some camcorders will let you connect the VCR to your camcorder and then you can use the camcorder's Firewire/USB to connect to your computer (the camcorder works as a pass-through).
Another way is to ask for somebody with the proper setup and gear to do the conversion for you. If the footage is special enough (e.g. an upgrade or uncirculated material) there might be somebody who is willing to do the job for you.
