Sorry I have not checked into this thread before. Don Chapman of Crative AV
Concepts makes a business of format conversions. I've used him a couple of
times and was pleased with the service and the price. He's at 1500 Old
Deerfield Rd. in Highland Park, IL (about 3 minutes from where I live).
He's listed in the phone directory. Or email me for it. In a day you'd be
ready to rock and roll with NTSC conversions. Email
st%$^eve@st$$##vekin%%g.net. Take out the silly stuff.
