My Samson C01U has a tripod desk stand: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290395628213 (yes, that's the one I won--good deal at the time). I too was impressed both by the length and girth (ahem) of the USB cable. Nothing cheap about it. We use the wind screen I linked to in my previous comment and pretty much faced the Samson C01U towards our mouths with the green light parallel to the wall (so the green light would be facing our mouths). I assumed that was the best way to use it.
I definitely need to further tweak settings in Audacity to get the best mix. What it records is crystal clear, of course, it's just a matter of making sure the volume is really loud for use in Premiere Elements (assuming I don't just try to record directly in there, which may solve most of the leveling issues).
Can you explain a little more about "compression" and why I'd want to apply it?
