This discussion of the ClearOne AccumicPC is really interesting to me, because I've been very unhappy with the performance I've gotten from them so far. We have a couple attached to a fairly new Dell and they don't pick up well at all. You pretty much need to have the saucer right down in front of you and speak loud toward it in order for other sites to understand you. Since quite a few of you like the AccumicPC and I've not really had a chance to test these on another PC or Mac, I suspect that my Dell's Sigmatel HD Audio interface could very well be the problem (and there's other problems associated with HD and rat)... not the Clearones.
