I've spent considerable amounts of money on a video camera, upgrading my
computer, lights, accessories, etc. Next I'd like to spiff up the sound.

What kind of boom-mounted mic would you recommend? I don't need high-end
(when I do I can always hire or rent), so knock-offs are fine. My current
shotgun mic has a frequency response of 100-16000Hz, which makes it
suitable for recording voice, but I'd like something better for all-purpose
applications. Suggestions?

I also welcome suggestions for PC hardware. So far my on-board sound card
has done fine, but I'd like something more refined without going into
studio equipment. USB devices preferred, as my motherboard has no PCI slots
left.

Thanks for all your help, you guys are very useful.
