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!"
No one want's to be excited by this. But we all secretly are or are kidding ourselves. Being excited by something called low end with a sweet deal is too egalitarian for the status-conscious engaget crowd to give a nod too. It might make them seem like their not leet and no one want to be the poor kid in the cafeteria. Juvenile bastards. It's cool to bash on ipod, but when you talk about the lowest of the low-end smartphone no one want's to talk some S**T?! Cowards.
Or, you know, readers just generally accepted that this was a good move and nodded their heads in acceptance, moving on to read the next story.
