The Creative HS Fatal1ty "just works" as it plugs into the mic and audio out sockets on your soundcard - £30 though which may be more than you're willing to spend. You might just need to fiddle with the mic gain a bit in the audio panel but thats about it.
I'd be careful with some of the USB solutions however - I'd imagine that, given that they bypass your soundcard altogether, some of them will have driver issues...
