Is there a compact desktop microphone I can use at my desk ?

Hey,

Is there a decent enough condenser desktop microphone that is compact, and will allow me to record vocal ideas at my iMac without having to think about things too much... ? One I can leave plugged in all the time, is compact, cheap enough, etc? I know the Apogee One has the inbuilt mic (so something along those lines), but I'm happy with my audio interface, so....? Thanx!

Can't beat this:

I've recorded vocals,gtr's/sampled with it. Best sub $50 I've ever spent.

Oh, thanks! You really think the quality is at least ok-ish?

Similarly, the Blue Snowball has surprisingly nice quality for being 60 bucks on Amazon. Couldn't be simpler to set up, too.

Much better than just 'ok-ish'
