RQJ, The only Griffin product I've ever owned/used is the IMic. It involves no software, at all. It's just a plug-and-play, USB, hardware device. I've never had any problems with it. and, aside from this one limitation -- that it seems not to support "record what you hear", it's an excellent product. For its price (under $40), it's the best external, USB audio device I know of. I've written to Griffin to see if they make another, comparable product that does support "record what you hear," and I'll just have to see what they say.
