...I would use the generic one that came with the system... as long as it has a mic input you should be ok. You will need a mic cable that converts down to that size or a mic pre that allows that type of output. Your monitors will require a cable conversion as well.. but that's not a big deal... Most important is cpu, hard drive, and ram.
Sorry dnkygirl, I have to disagree with what you say...
I'm too tired to write why I disagree at the moment, but I do, and enough so to make me frown a bit when I read it
There's a good chance someone else will probably disagree with you, so I'll leave it up to them to justify and explain it.
Now, sleep time.
Oh, and 3gb of RAM in a Core Duo system is a bit strange, seeing as all the chipsets / memory controllers I know of run in dual-channel mode (so having an unmatched 2+1 set would probably cause a noticeable performance hit, as opposed to 1+1 or 2+2 (or 1+1+1+1 as I have !)). The Core i7 systems have triple-channel memory controllers however, so in that case 3gb does make sense (or 6gb)...
