For those on MacBooks, it looks like the audio input handles both line
level analog or optical digital SPDIF.
"Connect your MacBook Pro to a line-level microphone or optical digital
audio equipment. The Audio In port accommodates both optical digital
audio input and analog audio input.
Analog audio line input is accepted through a 3.5mm mini phone jack
which does not provide power to a connected device, so you must use
self-powered peripherals. The sound input jack accepts line-level stereo
signals up to 24-bit stereo 44.1-192kHz sampling rate. It also accepts a
stereo miniplug-to-RCA cable adapter for connecting stereo equipment to
the computer.
Optical audio input is SPDIF format and uses a standard toslink cable
with a toslink mini-plug adapter, accepting up to 24-bit stereo and
44.1-96kHz sampling rate."

Have you tried ejecting then unplugging the Imic while still in
Windows?

Hi Everyone!
Ok, I installed my Fusion Windows XP Virtual machine on Friday and
overall I'm extremely happy with it var one annoying thing which
I'd like a bit of advice on.
I have an Imic connected to a USB port on my Mac and Windows
running under Fusion has no problem whatever in recognising it, the
problem starts when I shut down my Virtual Machine, I cannot get
Tiger to recognise the Imic unless I restart the computer, does
anyone have any suggestions on how I can avoid having to restart
the system? I've tried unpluging the Imic but this makes no
difference at all, a plain restart seems to be the only option at
the moment.
