[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 80719, member: 5184"] A PC soundcard has a microphone port that is different than line in. signal levels are different, plus a microphone port delivers power to the microphone, which it needs to work. On recent Apples, there's no such port. You have two choices: - Buy an USB headset - Buy the Griffin iMic. It gives you just the ports you need to connect your headset, and isn't too expensive either... [/QUOTE]
