Behringer B2 Vs. Samson C01U USB

[Winterain]

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with the Samson C01U USB Studio Condenser Mic, and perhaps the Behringer B2 ......
I own a B2, was wondering if the Samson would be a better mic in terms of quality.

I don't have any experience with the mic, but this is what I got from a review from ComputerMusic:

Easy and fast to set up, well built, much cheaper than the standard Condenser-Preamp-Soundcard combination. However, a bit noisy, offers only 16 bit AD conversion, and pickup a little unpredictable.

I guess the biggest advantage is the direct connection to the comp.
