I use an IRiver H340 and a Sony stereo condenser microphone.  It records MP3s to its internal hard disk and then you can transfer them to your PC at your leisure.

There are also professional hard disk recorders but they are expensive.

This may be of help:

If you're organ has line out, you can go directly to a AD converter and record to you computer. 

You can use Audacity for recording and editing.  It's free.

Here is a thread I started when I went on my microphone search:

Microphone manufacturers websites often give useful information the different types of mics and their uses.

Here is some more detailed info on mics and mic techniques.  On the left navigation bar click on "Microphone University"

I find this site useful for browsing the different equipment available.  Items are categorized by type so it is easy to compare prices from different brands.
