    Agreed. I think as long as the quality is fine then it'll be okay.

    Just place your webcam microphone next to you and talk to it... It wouldn't look weird at all...

    I'm using an external mic plugged into a USB for my Jamelios and I haven't had a problem.

    I bet that they just don't want onboard laptop mics or something.. those things are normally awful. But even that isn't a hard rule.

    I am using a Samson G-Track since it was already plugged in (to lazy to reach across desk and pickup headset) but I think anything that is slightly better than a tin can and string will work as well.

    They let me go over 600 unicorns, so this batch of 300+ seems like a brand new one and not a reload.

    Only the best for Endor, but it needs to be a pair of those old orange ones that came with the original walkmans.
