Hey everyone... got a real simple question for you all. I've got a 15" AlBook (1.25 Ghz), and I'm having problems getting my external Labtec mic to work. Basically, I don't get any input at all. I've got my sound input device in my preferences set to Line In.

I think I heard that Macs require powered input devices, which is why my unpowered Labtec isn't cutting it. Wasn't sure if this was true, though... just wanted to double check with you guys. Thanks.
