I have a similar collection of slides from my parents from the early days of their marriage.

What i did to get them on the computer was set up their 50 year old projector machine then took pictures of the projected images using a 7 megapixel digital camera mounted on a tripod. Worked great because the images were so large and being slides they were self illuminating. Didn't even need a flash.

Kinda nostalgic running the old projector too.
