I have been watching the great discussion on USB serial ports and I have 
learned a few things.  But here is a little different twist that my be of 
interest.

I have purchased the latest version of IBM's Via Voice recognition 
software.  No, I don't plan to use it to automate my system although there 
are some experiments that I will  be doing of that nature.  I don't think 
the software is mature enough to do all that I want yet.

But here is the part that interested me.  The software comes with a 
microphone / headset that is analog but included is an adapter that uses 
the USB as input for the microphone.  You have a small external adapter 
that your microphone plugs into and that plugs into the USB  and the 
headset gets audio out from your sound card.  I have not tried this with 
writelog but that is on the agenda for the near term.

Anyone have experience with USB for microphone input??  Writelog or not??

Thanks
