You could get someone to do it for you: http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk for one, many others out on the web...
I can only answer from a PC persepective, but the prinicples are the same.
If you want to have a go yourself, you will need a cassette player (!), PC with a stereo input to soundcard, conversion software, CD writer.
Note: if you are using a laptop, you may need a USB external soundcard (mine has only a mono mic input – not good enough! seeing as your notebook is an Apple, it may have a stereo input?? ) – you can get cheap, simple but effective ones (from Hong Kong) via ebay…
The software is probably the thing you really want to know about.. you will find loads out there. Personally I use Magix Audio Cleaning Lab – primarily for lifting vinyl, but will take any analogue signal. It has loads of features including cleaning filters, effects and editing… it’s cheap too – try ebay. There are loads more, some even free downloads – listen to folks who have used the software then have a go…. Audacity is popular (and free), think they do a version for mac also...see download.com - In the PC version you need to download an extra DLL for MP3, the software tells you when you try to export as MP3, just browse the net for it and save it on your computer.
Magix will offer you recording to WAV file which you can then convert or burn to a disc, or recording direct to MP3 at various bit-rate settings. There are copyright issues with copying commercial recordings, but check out http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/copy.htm for the low-down on what is acceptable (no problem if you own the recording, muchos problemo if you don't and then post it on the web...!)
Hope this helps

take the headphone output of your cassette deck and plug it into the mic or line enter of your pc. then you definitely can use the outfitted in sound recorder, or get different loose equipment of t'information superhighway. mess round about with the quantity on the tape deck to get the suitable vol without clipping. I do all of it the time, fedelity isn't remarkable, yet its okay to carry on utilising that bootleg tape you made 20 years in the past by technique of putting it on a CD.
