Here is a quote that generally is true:
"One of the basic tips is to avoid the mic input on the standard soundcards in PC´.
They normally are very bad and don´t work with good microphones.
Use the line input with an external mixer or pre-amp."
Mixers can be had varily inexpensive; Behringer makes some nice budget ones. The route I've decided on is 2 microphones (Audio Technica: AT 2020 and AT 2021- $200 CAD), Behringer UB802 mixer - $80 CAD and the free Audacity and Kristal software.
