Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
I swear, companies have 3/4th's of a brain when it comes to this crap. If I had money, I'd be marketing this...
1080p set-up box w/ optional HDD
-USB Ports for HDD storage
-Gigabit Network: DLNA for the computer retarded - SMB for the computer nerds
- Video Codecs supported: Divx 4/5/6/HD /H.264/X264 MKV/Mpeg2TS/etc - (basically use the mplayer engine similar to XBMC).
- Audio Codecs supported: DTS/DD 5.1/2-channel

$349 WHY AREN'T COMPANIES DOING THIS!?!?!?!? They're always so close, but then they decide, nah, no HDMI... or nah, no ethernet, so on and so forth... pisses me off!
