    Does the built in mic work with vista? I followed the directions and cannot get it to work. Is the only other choice using a usb microphone? What models are recommended, to many choices.

    Yes, it is supposed to work in Vista. Your other choices would include using the mic jack on the side next to the headphone jacks.

    Do all 17s come with a built-in mic?

    Yes, though the camera ones get the mic array.
