Connecting a microphone
Your computer has a sound input port, which you can use to connect a
microphone. With appropriate software, you can use the microphone to give
spoken commands to your Macintosh and to record your voice or other
sounds.
The Apple PlainTalk Microphone and the software needed for using spoken
commands are available from Apple-authorized dealers. If you want to use
another microphone, make sure it is compatible with your model of
Macintosh.
The Apple AudioVision 14 Display has the Apple PlainTalk Microphone
built in.
