Laptop to record LP's?

I was about to make a tape of an LP for a friend when it occured to me that I might be able to use my laptop and burn a CD instead. In this instance, I'm not really concerned about it being of high audiophile quality. Has anyone done this that can give me an idea of how to go about it? I have a Modulus 3A preamp. The album by the way is Louis Armstrong's Stash Christmas album. It's a great album if anyone is looking for some good Christmas music to add to their collection. Thanks.
