Update: Ordered an iLuv brand usb to headphone and mic jack adapter (connecter?, device?)($10 at bestbuy). Had to order, not a popular item/no one stocks.. now have to wait 2wks/--for delivery. "the show must go on!" ...Also, I attempted to open/take apart this Asus Eee PC/notebook, 4 little philip heads/on bottom but nothing seemed to want to budge(open/come off and I didn't want to force anything so cancelled that idea. :geek:

UPDATE So far so good--the adapter works fine. A little what seemed like grumbling from my computer at first (and making sure sound preferences all set right) but accepting now fine. It's a fix! Problem Solution Fix! Thanks again. Glad I didn't go with the cheapy cheapest adapter. This one (iLUV) seems decent and adequate w/value and quality.. playback same or better or should I say true/proper not altered, just a proper device to deliver the true sound unaltered. Because some adapters boasted of preset EQ's and what not, which I did not want.
