Re: Macintosh Microphone Jack - how do I make a recording?
On 19 Apr, this message from Elizabeth Barham echoed through cyberspace:

Weren't the clones all based on the first-gen PCi PowerMacs? Those
should have Cinch/RCA audio in, no?
Anyway, as has been said, the Mac's mic jack (3.5 mm jack) is the same
as a line in with a different connector. I.e. you can plug in the tape
with only a 'connector' adapter (i.e. no electronics required). Any
decent electronics/hifi/computer shop should have a RCA-to-jack adapter
(supposing the tape has RCA out).

Hm, can anyone confirm that we have sound-IN drivers at all? Last I
remember was that dmasound didn't do sound in. Don't know about alsa...
