I only have one jack on my computer, I'm trying to find something that would allow me to plug in both a mic jack and an audio jack.
I think it's something like this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brand-New-3-5mm-2-Female-to-Male-Adapter-Splitter-Cable-Headphone-to-Smart-Phone/111201679129?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222003%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140106155344%26meid%3D5383875353804781997%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D20140106155344%26rk%3D0%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D221304870881&rt=nc
But the wording in the description seems a bit ambiguous, and I'm not sure it's the right product
Would also like something that would ship within a few days, price isn't a huge concern

How big is the single jack on the computer?

I'm using regular earbuds and it looks the same as the jack on my old computer, so I'm pretty sure it's 3.5mm

Something like this is what you're looking for: http://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-headsets-separate-headphone-microphone/dp/B004SP0WAQ/
The one linked in the OP should be sufficient

I would check to see if your computer even supports a mic/headphones in a single jack. I've not seen a computer with just a single jack before, but maybe that's something new they are doing?. All the laptops I've seen have 2-3 jacks.

Combo jacks are getting more and more common on laptops due to Applerexia nervosa. Just look at a lot of the ultrabooks by Asus, Lenovo, Toshiba or Dell. Apple has even patented a 3.5mm jack which has the top cut off(so it's sort of a D-shape) to ensure the audio jack isn't going to be limiting the thinness of their mobile devices any time soon.
@OP These same splitters also exist in a USB form, where you just plug a little block into a USB port and it then has headphone and microphone 3.5 female ports.

if it's USB, that's a DAC, not a splitter
