[Alex Lake]

Very happy with Sennheiser PC 8, although it doesn't have active noise 
cancelling.
Maybe too cheap for you!

> - Noise Cancelling Microphone.
> - Doesn't rely on additional manufacturer software.
> - Good performance on BSD/Linux (my platform is 100% BSD/Linux).
> - Integrated good USB sound card, which is easier to handle on my

> Price: not important, although the differences in prices are huge. Some
