Dan (and everyone else): We support the Andrea USB Pod, but not the ANC-600. That does not mean necessarily mean it won't work for you, just that our experience has shown people don't get very good results with that microphone and iListen. For RAM, you should put as much in your machine as you can afford. For speech recognition software, there is no such thing as not enough RAM. For iListen, a minimum of 256mb is required. I would seriously consider at least 512mb. Best Regards, Chuck Rogers, Chief Evangelist MacSpeech, Inc.
