So I bought the macpro when it was first announced and I can't believe i haven't discovered this yet (i actually feel stupid)

I went out and bought a headset and mic, $50 nothing special just a mic and head phone combo.. So, i go to connect the mic and . . . I can't find the mic jack.. am i going crazy or is there no mic jack.. I'm looking for the small hole one (ie. headphone jack) .. I think i'm going crazy..

Please help 🙂

There's only a headphones jack on the front, but optical audio in and out and line in and out on the back (see http://www.apple.com/macpro/specs.html; the picture on the top right is the back panel).

cheers.
 
To use a mic with it you either need to buy something like the griffin imic. Or some type of hardware to provide power to the mic.

Sweet!

i should have asked this originally, but... can you do itunes/music/OS sounds through it?

You just select it as the output device and it will play everything out to the headphones.

WARNING: BT headphones sound awful even with A2DP. It is not worth it at all, in my opinion.
