I guess this explains why M$ acquired Connectix VirtualPC back in 2003, eh? Mac users at the time figured it was some sort of conspiracy to undermine the 1 million Mac VirtualPC users.
Seems Xbox PPC w/(some) backwards compatibility might be a way to gain familiarity with the foibles of the PPC architecture while not risking the family jewels that are Windows, nor making an overt threat to Jobs and company.
Oops, I guess my paranoid Mac geek side escaped again...

MP3 Recorders?

That CLIK! disk will be knocked out of the water by the new DataPlay disk/drive, even if it stays WORM.
The AIWA recorder doesn't have a high enough sampling rate when used to record voice/etc. through the built-in mic.
According to the spec table on that same web page: Recording with a built-in microphone: MP3/bit rate: 16Kbps/sampling frequency: 16 KHz
The biologist asked for 96Kbps minimum for recording the frog calls.
MP3 Recorders? How about Minidisc?

I have seen some of the newer MP3 portables with the ability to record voice/sound/frog calls. But I don't think they are recording in MP3 mode--I think they are recording with no compression b/c the tech specs usually indicate they can only record a few minutes of voice.
How about Minidisc player/recorders? They have optical out...you could either get an optical->analog converter, or get a sound card which accepts optical link cables.
