Sorry to forget about this thred. I got a Sony ECM-MS907. It's not
really optimal for the purpose as it's a handheld mic, so I have to
tuck it into my shirt to hold it up while I use both hands at the
computer. It works better than it sounds, but I'd prefer having either
a headset with a good mic or a TV-mic (you know, one of those
clip-ons).

For recording lectures, though, you want a room mic.
Thats okay David (I just did the same till emptying my mail box), thanks for taking the time to answer.
Its interesting, I had someone else recommend that mic to me the other day but they thought it would be fine for doing lectures as it can work for either 90 or 120 degree angles. Just to clarify this is the mic you are talking about: http://www.sel.sony.com/SEL/consumer/ss5/home/accessories/microphonesfordigital/ecm-ms907.shtml
