Best Answer

Yes a microphone is an input device.

Input/output devices are determined by the direction of the signal being transfered.

If the signal is being sent to the Case (main part of the computer that does all the work) then the device is classified as an input device and vice versa.

Since the signal from the microphone is sent to the Case, the microphone is "inputting" information into the computer.
