This is an old but cool piece of software that I used to use to record
college lectures on my laptop

I'm writing a biography.
I visit the subject of the biography and listen to the person remininsce.
I take copious notes on the laptop.
I used to use a cassette recorder as well.

Since this is a modern XP laptop -- full duplex A/D D/A Centrino, with an

80
gb hard disk, it has all the hardware required to function as a dictation
machine. It would be much easier to cue than tapes.

My wish list includes:
1. An all-in one program.
2. Compresses to mp3.
3. AGC -- automatic gain control.
4. easy editor to allow me to add cue points.
5. Background operation -- should be a given with all modern hardware.
