oh yes, maybe you&#39;re right.<br>although they say it&#39;s not combo (<span id="result_box" class="" lang="en"><span class="hps atn">(</span><span class="">These connections</span> <span class="hps">can be used depending</span> <span class="hps">on the software setting</span><span>)</span><span>:</span> <span class="hps">1 x Microphone</span><span class="">, 1 x Headphone</span></span>), on the picture of the same website I see only one jack &#39;hole&#39;.<br>

so, maybe the &#39;software setting&#39; means exactly that.<br>funny, because on the other models which has combo jack, they just say it&#39;s combo jack.<br><br>anyway, good point. I won&#39;t buy anything with combo!!! (except hamburgers)<br>

A quick search shows quite a few people have problems with combo jacks and external microphones. You don&#39;t really say if you need the input side to work, so if you are just using the output you are probably safe. There seem to be reports of sound output working under 12.10 and 12.04.</div>
