You won't because of the type of card.  I was hoping the "AC97 Capture" stuff 
would look the same.  I'm afraid I don't have any machines with standard 
junky soundcards to play with right now.  (Except my laptop, which is useless 
for recording even under Windows, and is a totally lost cause.)

Anyway, if spending money is an option, you're looking at a really crappy 
baseline, and just about anything you do will improve it.  I don't have any 
experience with these newfangled USB gadgets, but if other people here report 
good results, I think you'll be happier in the long run.  Better recordings, 
better playback, fewer hassles, and it's sounding like you can get good 
latency out of these things too.
