Suggestions on a DVD Recorder/VCR Combo?

[arequilman]

Looking at buying a good dvd recorder/vcr combo. Currently saw a PANASONIC DMR-ES45VS DVD VCR COMBO on ebay. However, I've also heard of "upconverting" that I thought sounded good. I didn't see it for the Panasonic but was wondering if there's a pretty good but decent priced combo that:
DVD recorder
VCR
Upconvert
Decent sound quality

In addition....

I'm not savy yet, but does any combo have an output that could possible run to my mac in case I want to edit something? I thought I could Transfer my home movies to dvd, then edit on mac or if there is a way, somehow run vhs to mac to be burnt anyway. Thanks in advance to any of you guru's out there.

The ES45V can do upconvert but Cnet reviews did not have a very good opinion of its quality.

The bad: Subpar HDMI upscaling video quality

A combo or recorder that can produce a dvd-video mode or VR mode disk can be edited on almost any computer platform with the right software.
